A Turkish government official said 22 of the victims in a suicide bomb attack on a wedding party in the southeastern Turkish city of Gaziantep at the weekend were under the age of 14.
Sky News quoted the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity as saying that the toll of 51 dead did not include the bomber.
On Sunday, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said a suicide bomber aged between 12 and 14 carried out the attack that killed at least 51 people, adding that initial evidence suggested it was orchestrated by Daesh elements.
