Angelina Jolie urges the world to ‘Do More’ to help flood affectees in Pakistan.

Hollywood actress turned humanitarian activist is currently visiting Pakistan to show solidarity and support for flood victims, visited the National Flood Response Coordination Centre (NFRCC) on Wednesday.

Speaking during a visit to NFRCC, Angelina Jolie said that “the lives that were saved, I talked to them, but they are not safe yet, the destruction that has happened, the world has no idea.”

She added that if full help does not arrive in the coming weeks, even the survivors will not be saved, there are countless children among these people who are in the struggle of life and death.

Angelina Jolie added that “I have never seen such a disaster anywhere in my life, the victims are in urgent need of food, shelter, and medical facilities. Earlier, whenever I came, I found the Pakistani people to be hospitable to the Afghan people.”

She asked the international community to do more for the Pakistani flood victims and said that today Pakistanis themselves are victims of a major natural disaster, and the world should wake up to the situation in Pakistan.

Angelina Jolie added that this is a matter of life and death for many people. Countries less responsible for climate change are facing more destruction and deaths than others. My heart goes out to the people in this hour of trouble.

She also said that she has seen the Pakistani army helping people and saving lives everywhere.
