Circa 1947 in Egypt, 1,000 Yugoslav refugees, after assembling in the UNRRA camp division warehouse in Cairo, the capital, were sent to the northern port city of Alexandria, where some 300 were assigned to the El Shatt camp near the north-eastern port city of Suez, UNRRA's largest refugee camp in the Middle East. UNRRA, the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, was created in 1943 to assist with relief operations and global recovery from the devastation of World War II. Focusing primarily on Europe and China, it finally closed in 1949 as its mandate was subsumed in the long-term development work of other United Nations agencies. UNRRA's work for children was taken over by UNICEF, created on 11 December 1946.](https://www.unicef.org.hk/wp-content/uploads/4016/12/UNI43135_Med-Res-1200x800.jpg)
