U 2 Incident

...
     Just after dawn on May 1 and American U-2 reconnaissance plane equipped with highly sophisticated ground-scanning cameras took off from a base in Pakistan and entered Soviet air space at a height of more that sixty-five thousand feet. ...
     But over the city of Sverdlovsk in the Ural Mountains the U-2 was hit by a ground-to-air missile and brought down. ... The incident gave Khrushchev the excuse he needed to break up a summit that clearly would earn him nothing but trouble.
     Though Soviet espionage operations in the United States were extensive and highly successful, gaining for the Soviets- among other things- important information for the development of nuclear weapons, Khrushchev demanded on arriving in Paris that Eisenhower publicly apologize for the U-2 spy flight.
