Agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested a Russian woman on June 12 after she attempted to enter Marine Corps Base Hawaii, the base said in a statement Friday.

Anastasiia Vorobeva was detained by entry guards at the base’s main gate off the H-3 freeway, according to the statement.

“Military Police initiated a traffic stop after the individual failed to present valid identification,” the base said.

Vorobeva had “no affiliation to the military or Marine Corps Base Hawaii,” according to the statement.

“Upon confirmation of her immigration status, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) took custody of the individual and transported her off the installation,” the base said.

ICE posted a photo of Vorobeva on social media sites, adding that she had entered the United States at the San Ysidro port of entry in San Diego on July 18, 2023.

The agency provided no further details about her immigration or visa status.

U.S. Indo-Pacific Command and U.S. Northern Command increased their security levels at all installations on June 14, saying it was being done as a general precautionary measure rather than a specific threat.

In Hawaii, that meant suspension of the Trusted Traveler program, which allows a holder of the Defense Department’s common access card to accompany visitors onto installations without them needing to show identification.

Under the suspension, every visitor over age 18 must show a government-issued ID, such as a driver’s license, military dependent ID, U.S. passport or veteran health ID card.

Children ages 10-17 must be accompanied by a sponsor and show a military-dependent ID if they have one.

Children under age 10 do not need ID when accompanied by their sponsor.
