The exact number of rebels killed in the battle is debatable; however, in his autobiography, Fidel Castro claimed that nine were killed in the fighting, and an additional 56 were executed after being captured by the Batista government.
Det nøjagtige antal dræbte oprørere ved angrebet kan diskuteres, men i sin selvbiografi hævder Castro, at ni oprørere blev dræbt i kampene og yderligere 56 blev dræbt senere af Batista-regimet.
