Six men are appearing in court charged with terrorism offences including a suspected suicide bombing campaign.
The six, all from Birmingham and aged between 25 and 32, are appearing at West London Magistrates' Court.
Mohammed Rizwan, 32, and Bahader Ali, 28, both of Sparkbrook, Birmingham, have been remanded in custody until 24 October.
They are both charged with failing to disclose information about acts of terrorism.
It is alleged that between 29 July and 19 September both men had information which they knew may help prevent the commission of an act of terrorism.
Mr Ali is also charged with "arranging the availability of property for terrorist purposes".
Mr Rizwan made no application for bail, while Mr Ali was refused bail.
The remaining four of the men were charged with preparing for an act of terrorism in the UK on Sunday night.
Seventh man Irfan Nasser, 30, of Sparkhill, and Irfan Khalid, 26, of Balsall Heath, are accused of preparing for an act of terrorism, including travelling to Pakistan for training in terrorism, making a martyrdom video and planning a bombing campaign.
They are accused of "being concerned in constructing" a home-made explosive device for terrorist acts and stating an intention to be a suicide bomber.
Ashik Ali, 26, of Balsall Heath, is accused of preparing for an act of terrorism, which involved planning a bombing campaign, providing premises for the planning of terrorist attack and stating an intention to be a suicide bomber.
Rahin Ahmed, 25, of Moseley, is accused of helping fund terrorist acts.
The offences are alleged to have taken place between Christmas Day 2010 and 19 September this year.
The men were arrested after a police operation in Birmingham last week.
A seventh man from the city, aged 20, who was arrested on Thursday, continues to be questioned. Officers have until 29 September to charge, release or apply for further time.
The men were arrested as part of an operation carried out by the West Midlands Counter Terrorism Unit. The arrests were unarmed, pre-planned and intelligence-led.
