“History will judge the enormous impact” of Cuba’s former leader Fidel Castro on the world, US President Barack Obama has said.

The death of Castro, one of the world’s longest-serving leaders, was announced by his brother Raul on Friday night.

Castro came to power in 1959, and ushered in a Communist revolution. He defied the US for decades, surviving many assassination plots.

Supporters said he returned Cuba to the people. Critics called him a dictator.
