 he United Nations refugee agency’s Goodwill Ambassador, actress Angelina Jolie, is touring a refugee camp in Jordan for Syrians who fled the civil war in their country. The Hollywood star arrived on Tuesday morning in the Zaatari camp, which hosts about 27,000 Syrian refugees. She met with Syrian refugee women separately and toured the sprawling tent city.

The actress thanked Jordan for accommodating the Syrian refugees. Jolie was accompanied by U.N. refugee chief Antonio Guterres and Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh. The UN Refugee Chief Guterres said the camp needs massive international funding and that its conditions are still not acceptable. Jordan has sheltered more than 185,000 Syrian refugees - the largest number in the region.
