London, Sep 13 - Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie was overcome with emotion during a trip to a refugee settlement in Africa Saturday.

The 'Tomb Raider' actress, a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador, spent a day at the Dadaab refugee camp on the Kenyan border to see the conditions that 285,000 starving Somali refugees live in and could not control her feelings from showing, reports contactmusic.com.

The camp, built to house just 90,000, was set up to aid people who have escaped the terror of their own country and fled into Kenya.

Jolie, who hopes to bring the plight of the Somali people to the public's attention, met a number of families at the camp - and was appalled at the way they had to live.
