A man linked to the so-called Beatles Islamic State cell has pleaded guilty to terrorism offences.
Aine Davis, 39, originally from Hammersmith, west London, was arrested at Luton Airport last August after being deported from Turkey.
He previously denied charges against him but changed his pleas at a hearing at the Old Bailey today.
Davis admitted possession of a firearm contrary to Section 57 of the Terrorism Act 2000, and two charges relating to the funding of terrorism.
He appeared by videolink from Belmarsh prison wearing a grey prison-issue tracksuit.
The judge Mark Lucraft KC remanded him in custody ahead of sentencing at the same court on 13 November.
Davis was arrested in Istanbul in November 2015 and sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in Turkey for membership of IS.
He has always denied being part of the Beatles cell - named after the British accents of the group of men who tortured and beheaded western hostages in Syria.
Two members, British nationals El Shafee Elsheikh and Alexanda Kotey, are now serving life sentences in US jails.
The third, Mohammed Emwazi, dubbed Jihadi John, who was believed to feature in shocking videos of IS beheadings of a number of captives, was killed in a drone strike in 2015.
