Iraq forces have discovered a tractor-trailer loaded with explosives in northern Baghdad, the capital city of the Arab country.

According to source at the Iraqi Ministry of Interior, a tractor-trailer full of explosives has been found by Iraqi forces in al-Moshahda neighbourhood in capital Baghdad.

After investigating the vehicle which had no number plate, the Iraqi forces realized that a large amount of powerful explosives had been placed in it, according to a report by the Iraqi satellite TV network Al Sumaria News.

Experts said that the tractor-trailer was carrying four 20-litre gallons and three oxygen tanks containing C-4, seven missiles, a 120-millimetre incendiary shell and a large amount of detonators.

The bombs planted in the vehicle were defused successfully in an operation without causing any casualties or destruction.
