A civil war in Sri Lanka destroyed many lives and resulted in many displaced people.

UN intervention made this issue much worse. 

The UN-designated a region of the country as a safe zone and many who were already displaced moved there to get away from the hail of bullets raining down every other day. This safe zone quickly became the battleground for the rebels and government. Those in the area only suffered more due to the UN’s utter incompetence and inability to secure an area.
