The dramatic moment Iraqi Police forcefully detonates explosive belt carried by an ISIS child suicide bomber 'aged 12 or 13'

Dramatic footage has captured an 'ISIS child suicide bomber aged 12 or 13' being stripped of his explosive belt moments before it was about to be detonated.

The boy, who was wearing a Barcelona football shirt with FIFA World Player of the Year Lionel Messi on the back, reportedly burst into tears as he was detained by Iraqi police in the city of Kirkuk, north of Baghdad, yesterday.
His arrest came less than 24 hours after another child suicide bomber killed at least 51 people and injured 100 more at a wedding party in Turkey.
It has led to fears children are increasingly being used by ISIS to carry out deadly attacks. Two other suicide bombers blew themselves up in Kirkuk on Sunday.
