camps for training terrorists and saboteurs were set up in italy and hungary, chiefly at brescia and borgotaro in italy and janka puszta in hungary and an armed insurrection was attempted in 1933 when the ustaše, armed by the italians, attempted to invade the country by crossing the adriatic sea in motorboats. this was unsuccessful but its lack of success probably was instrumental in the decision to assassinate king alexander i of yugoslavia. two attempts were made, the last one successful and aleksandar was slain at marseilles 9 october 1934 along with the french foreign minister, louis barthou.
