Attack on the Moncada Barracks in Santiago de Cuba

On 26 July 1953, the Moncada military barracks in Santiago de Cuba was attacked by an armed group of ~135 revolutionaries led by Fidel Castro.

Poorly executed, the attack failed and the surviving revolutionaries, including Castro, were imprisoned. This armed attack is widely accepted as the beginning of the Cuban Revolution.
