Militants fighting for the Islamic State in northern Iraq have brutally murdered a four-year-old with explosives just a week after executing his father, it has been claimed.

Anti-ISIS activists working in the terror group’s Al-Shirqat district stronghold said the extremists attached the explosives to the helpless child in such a way “that his organs would be blown apart”.

Speaking to the Iraqi news network Al Sumaria, Jabar el-Maamour - a spokesman and senior official in the state-sponsored Popular Mobilisation militant group – said he was revealing details of the savage murder as a way of condemning ISIS’ supporters and fundraisers.

According to el-Maamour, the boy’s violent death came just a week after his father was murdered having being found guilty of a December attack on an ISIS checkpoint that killed two jihadis.

Al-Shirqat, which lies just off the main road between Tikrit and Mosul, is considered one of ISIS’ major strongholds in northern Iraq. Its strategic position on the edge of the Nineveh plain has made it a key target for anti-ISIS forces who hope to eventually push the terror group out of the oil-rich city of Mosul, which acts as the militants’ de facto nerve centre in Iraq.
The news comes as chilling new details emerged outlining the extent to which Isis scientists and weapons experts have developed sophisticated new weaponry capable of shooting down passenger jets.
In an exclusive Sky News report, ISIS militants were seen at a “jihadi university” in the terror group’s de facto capital city Raqqa, building remote-controlled vehicles and other advanced weaponry that could be used in terror attacks.
