In 2004, the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) began organising the repatriation of over 71,000 Angolan refugees from Zambia. The first refugees returned by air but a new land corridor from Zambia via Caianda for remaining refugees.
The refugees left Angola beginning in 1974 during the fighting between UNITA and MPLA forces.
