Angelina Jolie in Pakistan to meet flood victims

Angelina Jolie is in Pakistan, where she was up this morning to meet with displaced people at the Kandaro II Camp in the country's flooded northwest region. She sat down with mothers and elderly residents who fear their country may never be the same. The actress is continuing her philanthropic efforts to help those who were forced to leave their homes due to rising waters, after she recorded a PSA with the UNHCR. She spoke today about the area's problems, commenting, "From what I understand the situation is on a scale that we have not really seen the likes of. It's on a huge scale. It is an extraordinarily complex situation, it's not just the floods".
