That we know of, El Salvador.

There are quite a few entries in that list, and these are things we are aware of today after FOIA. This list is only confirmed intervention by the US.

There likely was direct involvement by USA in overthrows of democracies of some Arab Spring countries, of Ecuador in the late 2000s, and maybe even Brazil and Argentina.

I can’t find anything about El Salvador that’s recent, and almost all of the overthrows of democratic governments happened during or before the 1970s (so 50 years ago.) I would also repeat I used the term invasion for a reason, had Russia used covert actions to bring a friendly regime to power in Ukraine it would be a very different situation.
