UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie jokes with Afghan children in the refugee camp of Katcha Ghari on the edge of the Pakistani city of Peshawar. On a three-day visit to Pakistan she talked with Afghans repatriating to their homeland and others who are still reluctant to return. She noted that the conditions faced by the people she met showed the need for international assistance in both Pakistan and Afghanistan. (May 2005).
