as posted by the channel

This month marks the anniversary of the Bay of Pigs invasion — the failed U.S.-backed attempt to overthrow Fidel Castro in 1961. 65 years on, some of its surviving veterans say the fight for Cuba’s future isn’t over. Our correspondent Ines Pohl spoke to three members of Brigade 2506 about their mission, their imprisonment, and why they believe Donald Trump could finally bring about change in Cuba.

Short Teaser: 65 years after the Bay of Pigs, surviving fighters say Cuba’s struggle isn’t over- and change may finally be within reach.
