Angelina Jolie is Back in Iraq

Angelina Jolie laughs with an internally displaced boy at a makeshift camp northwest of Baghdad, Iraq, on Thursday (July 23).

The 34-year-old UNHCR (UN Refugee Agency) Goodwill Ambassador was on a day trip in Iraq to bring attention to the plight of displaced people within the country (approximately 3 million) and outside of Iraq (approximately 1.5 million). She spent time with four families who were displaced from Abu Ghraib.

This is the third time that Angie has visited the war-torn country. She spoke to the locals, saying, “”I want to come back and find you in a better place and in a different situation. We hope that UNHCR and the government will support you in getting a piece of land. You need help not because you are poor, but because you are the future of Iraq.”
