Two men and a woman have been charged with terrorism offences in the UK, as part of a joint investigation into the Paris and Brussels terror attacks involving MI5, Belgian and French authorities.
Mohammed Ali Ahmed, 26 and Zakaria Bouffassil, 26, are accused of providing money which they "knew or had reasonable cause to suspect" would be used for terrorism, police said in a statement.
Ahmed is also accused, along with Soumaya Boufassil, 29, of gathering money "with the intention of committing acts of terrorism or assisting another to commit such acts".
They were among five people arrested in Birmingham and at Gatwick Airport earlier this month. A number of properties in Birmingham were searched as part of the ongoing operation.
The trio will appear before Westminster Magistrates Court on Friday 29 April.
Fazal Sajjad Younis Khan, 40, was charged with possession of CS spray, which is used for riot control.
He is on bail and will appear before Birmingham Magistrates court on Friday 13 May.
A 59-year-old man remains on bail while the investigation continues.
Earlier on Thursday, a 21-year-old was arrested in London on suspicion of attempting to join Isis in Syria.
