This market will resolve to "Yes" if the United States commences a military offensive intended to establish control over any portion of Iran by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, land de facto controlled by Iran or the United States as of November 4, 2025 12:00 PM ET, will be considered the sovereign territory of that country. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible sources.A fragile two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran, announced on April 7, 2026, and mediated by Pakistan, has driven trader consensus to price a 69.5% implied probability against a U.S. ground invasion before 2027. Following joint U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Iranian military and oil targets since February 28 that degraded Tehran's missile capabilities and sparked Strait of Hormuz disruptions, President Trump issued an April 8 deadline for safe passage, averting escalation with this pause for Islamabad talks led by Vice President Vance starting April 10. While U.S. forces remain positioned for potential resumption amid ongoing Israeli strikes on Hezbollah proxies, the diplomatic off-ramp and absence of ground troops signal de-escalation to markets, though congressional war powers resolutions highlight domestic constraints.
