On The Line: Kaj Larsen Discusses the War Against Boko Haram

Follow us on Twitter where we'll announce this week's topic for On The Line.

Kaj Larsen joined 'On The Line' to discuss his new piece, "The War against Boko Haram."

Since 2009, the militant Islamist group known as Boko Haram has wreaked havoc in northern Nigeria. Instilling terror through bombings, abductions, and beheadings, Boko Haram is fighting to create an Islamic state in the most populous country in Africa.

Kaj traveled to Nigeria for VICE News to embed with the country's army as it ramped up its fight against Boko Haram. As the only journalists on the front line in northern Nigeria, VICE News witnessed the beginning of the largest military incursion to date.
