Soviet-led Forces Invade Czechoslovakia
Soviet-led forces invade Czechoslovakia to halt pro-democracy reforms.
In 1968, Soviet-led forces invaded Czechoslovakia after the country's communist government, led by Prime Minister Alexander Dubcek, began a series of democratic reforms.
Protests against the invasion followed, during which dozens of people were killed and hundreds more injured.
After the invasion, Dubcek's government was replaced by a repressive, Soviet-backed regime and Dubcek's democratic reforms were halted.
