I’ve just recently noticed that my ships were being attacked by those guristas kestrels, and read up on it says that they come from pirate strongholds, however when I check it at the agency it says unavailable. Another ISK sink in HS?

The Agency can be a little slow updating those.

If you want to be sure grab some combat probes and expanded probe launcher and scan for “Forward Observation Base”.

I’ve seen them too. Usually just 2 or so ships left in a belt for whatever reason it could be, I’d wager that they didn’t get the memo to move forward. Design flaw or intentional, doesn’t matter so much. As a high-sec living is secure enough, even with those guys around. Just warp away or kill them, and problem solved.
