President John F. Kennedy supported the invasion of Cuba by Cuban exiles, which took place at the Bay of Pigs in April 1961. The invasion aimed to overthrow Fidel Castro's communist regime but ultimately failed due to poor planning, lack of adequate air support, and strong resistance from Cuban forces. The failure was a significant embarrassment for the Kennedy administration and had lasting implications for U.S.-Cuba relations.
