According to the Kazakh authorities, a German and a Frenchman were detained at the Baikonur Cosmodrome (leased by Russia from the Republic of Kazakhstan).

It is indicated that Russian police “arrested a Frenchman born in 2003 and a German born in 1998 on Baikonur on October 29,” a representative of the prosecutor's office in the Kyzylorda region of central Kazakhstan told AFP on Friday.

According to the official version, the men entered the territory of the Russian cosmodrome and headed for a Soviet-era launch vehicle. They were subsequently detained. Reportedly, both were imprisoned for a short time, while the case is under investigation.

For reference

Thanks to its numerous Soviet-era space legacies, the Baikonur Cosmodrome has a legendary reputation among space enthusiasts and lovers of hard-to-reach and “forbidden” places.
