Soviet Cargo Ship "Fixik Kurchatov" Taking Soviet Missiles From Cuba Back To The Soviet Union

CUBA - NOVEMBER 12: The Soviet cargo ship FIZIK KURCHATOV, which left Cuba on November 7, is photographed by American reconnaissance planes during its return to the Soviet Union. On the deck of this ship are six canvas-covered missiles. These are the same missiles which were aimed toward the United States. The Soviet Union, following the American blockade of Cuba, decided to send the missiles back to its territory. (Photo by Keystone-France/Gamma-Keystone via Getty Images)
