FBI counter terrorism agents have arrested two men in Texas following long running surveillance operations.

The men, Rahatul Ashikim Khan, and Michael Todd Wolfe are both expected to appear in court in Texas tomorrow. They face up to 15 years in prison if convicted of supporting terrorism.

The FBI said that Khan, 23, allegedly tried to recruit an FBI confidential human source to travel to Somalia to join al-Shabaab, while Wolfe, also 23, wanted to move to Syria to join ISIS.

Wolfe was arrested trying to board a plane in Houston with his wife and two children to Toronto, before continuing to Iceland and then Denmark where he planned to meet an undercover FBI agent.

According to court documents, Khan was arrested after a major operation by FBI Special Agent Jason Cromartie.
