		</div><p>As Special Envoy to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Jolie marked World Refugee Day on Sunday in Burkina Faso’s Goudoubo refugee camp in the Sahel, where she finished a two-day visit.</p>
<p>She spoke with the camp’s Malian refugees and internally displaced people in the nation’s hard-hit Center-North and Sahel regions.</p>
<p>Malians began fleeing to Burkina Faso in 2012 after their lives were upended by an Islamic insurgency, where it took a French-led military intervention to regain power in several major towns.</p>
<p>The fighting has since spread across the border to Burkina Faso, creating the fastest growing displacement crisis in the world.</p>
<p>Last month Burkina Faso experienced its deadliest attack in years, when gunmen killed at least 132 civilians in Solhan village in the Sahel’s Yagha province, displacing thousands.</p>
<p>The increasing attacks are stretching the UN’s ability to respond to displaced people within the country as well as the refugees it is hosting.</p>
<p>“Funding levels for the response are critically low and with growing numbers of people forced to flee… the gap is widening,” UNHCR representative in Burkina Faso Abdouraouf Gnon-Konde told reporters.</p>

<p>The attacks are also exacerbating problems for refugees who came to the country seeking security.</p>
<p>“We insisted on staying (in Burkina Faso), (but) we stay with fear. We are too scared,” said Fadimata Mohamed Ali Wallet, a Malian refugee living in the camp.</p>
<p>“Today there is not a country where there isn’t a problem. This (terrorism) problem covers all of Africa,” she said.</p>
