SummaryResumen
The Evening Star reported that Cuban magistrate Evelio Tabio ordered the release of nearly 1,200 participants in the aborted anti-Trujillo invasion expedition, holding only its purported leaders in custody. A captured diary published by the newspaper *Hoy* detailed training at Holguin and miserable conditions on Cayo Confites, where troops endured internal infighting, accidental drownings, and failed logistics aboard vessels including the *Aurora*, *Berta*, and *Angelita*. The collapse of the operation culminated in mass surrenders at Guinchos Cay and Antilla.
