Six people have been arrested in Spain for allegedly providing support and helping to train fighters for terrorist groups in Iraq and elsewhere, the Interior Ministry said Wednesday in a statement.
The Civil Guard searched six houses in the northern Burgos province and found documents and computers used by the suspect, it said, adding that this is the first time Spain has shut down an internet-based terrorist operation.
The group collected funds for alleged terrorist groups, engaged in extremist preaching that justified terror attacks, recruited and trained people to conduct terrorist operations, and produced audiovisual material and leaflets for them, said the statement.
The group was led by two men from Algeria and Morocco, the Ministry said.
