Four men suspected of forming a terror cell have been arrested in Spain's north African enclave of Ceuta.
Police are investigating whether the two pairs of brothers may have been planning an attack.
The suspected Islamist militants were described by interior minister Jorge Fernandez Diaz as "highly radicalised and highly trained".
He said there were "many parallels" with the two brothers who killed 12 people in an attack on the Paris office of satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo this month.
Mr Diaz did not elaborate.
The four men are reportedly of Moroccan origin but hold Spanish nationality.
Police found combat gear and knives as they searched two houses in Ceuta, a city bordering Morocco, officials said.
The investigation started two weeks ago when one of the men posted a video on Facebook showing him providing military training and urging others to wage jihad, El Pais newspaper reported.
Spain and Morocco have arrested dozens of suspected jihadist militants and recruiters in recent years, including around Melilla and Ceuta, which are on the Mediterranean coast.
Spain is among a number of European countries struggling to deter young Muslim citizens from becoming jihadists in Syria or Iraq, fearing they might return to plot attacks on home soil.
The Spanish cabinet has said it will put forward a plan to counter radicalisation among Muslim citizens at its weekly meeting next Friday.
