Angelina Jolie has once again stepped into the world of humanitarian work, travelling to the Egypt-Gaza border to meet injured Palestinians.

The 50-year-old actress spent many years helping refugees and families affected by war and this visit highlighted the struggles people face in conflict zones.

At the Rafah crossing, which connects Egypt to Gaza, Jolie met members of the Red Crescent and truck drivers delivering aid.

However, the Maria actress also talked to Palestinians who were moved from Gaza to Egypt for medical treatment.

Jolie, who is best known for her pure soul, listened to their stories and saw the personal difficulties they live through every day.

This heartfelt visit came after her recent humanitarian trip to Kherson, Ukraine, where she toured hospitals, including a maternity ward and children’s hospital.
