A Maryland man has been charged with receiving $9,000 from ISIS to fund an attack on the United States.
Mohamed Elshinawy, 30, of Edgewood, Maryland, was arrested on Friday, the Justice Department said. He was also charged with lying to federal agents and obstructing their investigation.
He is the latest of more than 70 people arrested by U.S. law enforcement authorities for suspected ties to the militant group since 2014.
According to a criminal complaint unsealed on Monday, Elshinawy pledged allegiance to Islamic State in February and later told his brother he wanted to die as a martyr.
