Kilis Camp, Turkey (CNN) -- Actress Angelina Jolie is continuing her tour of countries hosting Syrian refugees.

She went to the Kilis Camp in Turkey on Thursday and talked with people impacted by the conflict in their homeland.

One nine year old boy told her how his older brother was killed and that there are no Syrian families without tragedy.

Jolie is a special envoy for the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.

Her visits are to highlight the need for the world to help countries that have taken in tens of thousands of Syrians who have fled their homeland.

Turkey, which borders Syria, has nine refugee camps and plans to build four more.
