Ukrainian forces recaptured Dovha Balka southwest of Kostyantynivka in Donetsk Oblast on May 9, reversing limited Russian infiltration gains into the village's eastern and southeastern sectors during late April and early May. Geolocated footage and Institute for the Study of War assessments confirm Ukrainian units cleared Russian positions, with no sustained control at the key Tsentralna-Peremohy intersection as of May 11. Russian forces continue small-unit probes and artillery strikes across the broader Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka axis, yet overall advance rates have slowed amid a brief May 9-11 ceasefire and Ukrainian defensive reinforcements. Trader sentiment reflects these frontline reversals and the absence of major escalations, focusing on whether renewed Russian pressure could retake contested ground before any specified resolution window closes.

The intersection will be considered captured if any part of the intersection is shaded red on the ISW map (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36a7f6a6f5a9448496de641cf64bd375) by the resolution date. If the area is not shaded red by the specified date, the market will resolve to “No”.
For any change on the ISW map to qualify for this market’s resolution, the relevant shading indicating Russian 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 “Assessed Russian Control”, “Assessed Russian Advance In Ukraine”, or “Assessed Russian Gains in the Past 24 Hours” will qualify. “Assessed Russian Infiltration Areas in Ukraine” will not qualify.
If Russia comes into control of this territory as a result of a negotiated settlement, this will qualify for a 'Yes' resolution, regardless of whether it is shaded red in the ISW map. An announcement of a negotiated settlement that gives Russia de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established.
Once Russia captures the intersection, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
