Ukrainian forces have conducted counteroffensives in Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts through mid-2026, liberating dozens of settlements and over 600 square kilometers as part of operations that disrupted Russian advances toward key defensive lines. Recent Russian claims of capturing additional villages in Zaporizhzhia on August 27-28 highlight ongoing pressure along multiple axes, while Ukrainian strikes on Russian command posts, logistics, and drone infrastructure continue. Command restructuring discussions between President Zelensky and military leaders, alongside reported peace proposals involving concessions, shape assessments of whether Ukrainian units can regain specific contested settlements like Obratne or Temyrivka before any market deadline. Trader consensus reflects these frontline dynamics, Ukrainian long-range capabilities, and Russian recruitment and infiltration efforts in contested sectors.

Territory will be considered captured if any part of the specified territory is shaded under a below specified layer on the ISW map (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36a7f6a6f5a9448496de641cf64bd375) by the resolution date. Otherwise, the market will resolve to “No”.
For any change on the ISW map to qualify for this market’s resolution, the relevant shading indicating Ukrainian control must persist through the next full ISW daily update cycle. If ISW skips a day, shading must persist until the next finalized ISW update is published, regardless of the date. Any continuous shading which reflects either "Reported Ukrainian Territorial Gains in the Past 24 Hours", or “Claimed Ukrainian Counteroffensives” will qualify.
Once a qualifying condition is met, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
If Ukraine comes into control of the specified territory as a result of a negotiated settlement, this will qualify for a 'Yes' resolution, regardless of whether it is shaded blue in the ISW map. However, an announcement of a negotiated settlement that gives Ukraine de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established.
The primary resolution source for this market will be the ISW Ukraine map. If the ISW map is rendered unavailable, information from DeepStateMap (https://deepstatemap.live/) may be used. If information from both the ISW and DeepStateMap are rendered permanently unavailable, a consensus of credible reporting may be used.
Note: Any temporary glitches or errors in the map will not be considered.
