Angelina Jolie Meets with Refugees Who 'Lost Everything' After Being Displaced by Conflict in Sudan

Angelina Jolie met with refugees in Chad who have been displaced by an ongoing conflict in Sudan and urged the United Nations to increase the amount of humanitarian aid flowing into the region. 'Every hour matters as lives are at stake,' Jolie said.

On Sept. 25, the Oscar winner, 49, shared a photo on Instagram from her visit with refugees in Adré, Chad, who have escaped Sudan amid an ongoing internal conflict in the African country that began in 2023. Jolie urged the United Nations to "scale up the humanitarian response in Sudan and the region" as the U.N. held its 2024 General Assembly in New York City. The director-actress recently spoke to her experiences in humanitarian work and visits to war-torn areas of the world while talking about her new movie as a director, Without Blood, with The Hollywood Reporter.
