Pertempuran Santa Clara

Pertempuran Santa Clara adalah serangkaian peristiwa pada akhir Desember 1958 yang berujung pada ditaklukannya kota Kuba Santa Clara oleh para revolusioner di bawah komando Che Guevara. Pertempuran tersebut menjadi kemenangan mutlak bagi para pemberontak yang berjuang melawan rezim Jenderal Fulgencio Batista: dalam 12 jam, kota tersebut ditaklukkan, Batista lari dari Kuba dan pasukan Fidel Castro mengklaim kemenangan.
