Officials in Bosnia have named an apartment block after Angelina Jolie because her visit to a refugee camp in the country last year (10) prompted American politicians to finance the housing project.

The Hollywood actress visited refugees in the town of Rogatica last April (10) as part of her duties as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations, and met with elderly Bosnians who had been displaced by the 1992 to 1995 war.

Her highly-publicised trip caused ripples back in her native America, with government officials agreeing to donate $500,000 (£312,000) for a housing scheme.
