Angelina Jolie has said that rape is not a woman problem it's a crime against humanity.

The 'Maleficent' actress, who opened up how privileged she was working with female rape activists, said that everywhere she went, rape was the silent killer, but it became quickly clear to her that these women were not just the collateral damage of war, the Mirror reported.

Jolie said that rape was a strategic, organized scheme to destroy entire communities.

Jolie has recently campaigned at the Global Summit to 'End Sexual Violence' in conflict to raise awareness of rape being used as a weapon in war and has been honoured for her efforts in doing so.
