Cambyses II, the Persian king, invaded Kush around 525 BCE but faced significant resistance. The campaign ultimately failed to secure lasting control over the region, as Kushite forces, led by their king, managed to repel the invaders. This failure highlighted the challenges of maintaining an empire and the resilience of the Kushite kingdom. The invasion did, however, lead to temporary Persian influence over certain areas of Nubia.

Which is true about Kush's history 1 Greece conquered Kush 2 Kush controlled all of Egypt at one point 3 Kush was in modern day Saudi Arabia 4 Kush was invaded by Rome 5 Kush was conquered by Aksum?

Three of those statements are true: (2) Kush controlled all of Egypt at one point - 25th Pharaonic Dynasty AND (4) Rome invaded Kush (unsuccessfully) - Rome tried to conquer Kush around 22 B.C.E. and had Petronius lead the attack. However, the Kushites were able to defeat this invasion and established peaceful relations with Rome afterward AND (5) Kush was conquered by Aksum. (1), and (3) are false. Since the Aksumites conquered Kush, it could not have been the Greeks. Since Kush was in Sudan and Egypt, it was not in Saudi Arabia.
