Last Wednesday, the 18th, the US Coast Guard reported that it was monitoring a Russian ship located off the coast of Hawaii. According to the institution, such ship may have been collecting information for Russian intelligence, which caused the Coast Guard to coordinate with the Pentagon – headquarters of the US Department of Defense – to provide updates.
“As part of our daily operations, we track all vessels in the Pacific region, using land and air resources, in addition to joint agency capabilities,” highlighted the Coast Guard, in a report by Commander Dave Milne, chief of business external.

Military vessels from other countries can travel freely through US waters. However, still according to the statement, military vessels flying the flags of foreign countries were often seen in operation and wandering in the Coast Guard response area.
Milne adds, “The Coast Guard acts in accordance with international maritime law to ensure that all nations can do the same without fear or dispute. This is especially critical to ensuring freedom of movement and navigation throughout the Blue Pacific.”
A video of this ship coming from Russia made by the United States Coast Guard showed the longitude and latitude which, according to HawaiiNewsNow, suggested the vessel was approximately 100 miles away from Honolulu.
A Marine lieutenant colonel said in May, when another Russian vessel was being monitored near Hawaii, that, during the Cold War, the Soviet Union used to send vessels and ships to obtain information from the United States United. These vessels were also wandering close to Hawaii.
“These tactics, techniques and procedures we saw the Soviets perform during the Cold War appear to be making a comeback, under Russia's banner. […] that seems like one of the problems I would point out for Russian intelligence ships potentially off the coast of Hawaii,” said the retired military officer.
