Federal police in Brazil have arrested 10 members of a group alleged to be preparing acts of terrorism during the Olympic Games.
The authorities said they were not members of so-called Islamic State but had tried to make contact with the group.
The arrests were made in the southern state of Parana.
They come just over two weeks before the Olympic Games get under way in Rio de Janeiro.
Justice Minister Alexandre Moraes told a news conference that all those arrested were Brazilian. Two more suspects were being sought
A court in the southern state of Parana said there were indications that the group was planning to use weapons and guerrilla tactics to achieve its aim, Reuters news agency reported.
An emergency cabinet meeting has been called.
More than 80,000 police and soldiers will patrol Rio streets for the games which end on 21 August.
The federal government said last week that it was releasing an extra $24m (£18m) to beef up security ahead of the Olympics.
The International Olympic Committee recently concluded that Rio de Janeiro had overcome setbacks and is "ready to welcome the world" to the 2016 Olympics.
There have been fears over Rio's readiness because of building delays, the Zika virus and political crises.

There were 8 countries involved so unclench
It was a judicial order for a whatsapp blockade that proved their links too so don't think for a second we're not being ripped off left and right for this stupid Olympics.

You could give me free tickets and pay for my trip, and there is still NO way I would go there. Almost a certainty something will happen.

They're trying to shove this "ticket lottery" idea down our throats here but it's a cover. They can't sell the tickets nobody wants to go that's the truth.

The Olympics over there is one hell of a target and sure more arrests will be made. Imagine the security, it'll be a hideous affair when it begins.
