Three young boys and a handler have been arrested in Pakistan after they were allegedly caught travelling to a suicide bomber training camp, it emerged today.

The children—aged 12 to 14—were being transported from Karachi to a city in north Waziristan, near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, when police arrested them following a tip-off. 

They were arrested on Tuesday as they boarded a bus in northwest Pakistan, according to CNN.
