Che in Congo
In 1965 the Latin-American revolutionary went to fight with rebels in the Congo.
Che Guevera and around 200 Cuban soldiers spent seven months in the jungle, waging guerrilla war against the US-backed Congolese army.
Guevara later described the diaries he kept about his time in Africa as "the history of a failure."
