Ukrainian forces have repelled Russian infiltration attempts and maintained effective control over Kupiansk into mid-2026, turning earlier Russian claims of capture into contested gray-zone fighting with Ukrainian clearing operations. Russian units continue small-scale assaults and pipeline infiltrations near the Oskil River but have recorded no confirmed advances into the city, prompting reported redeployments of Western Grouping elements due to losses. Broader Ukrainian territorial gains exceeding 600 square kilometers in 2026, including in the Kupiansk sector, combined with Russian focus on other axes, have reinforced trader consensus that full seizure before the December 31, 2026 resolution remains unlikely absent major shifts in manpower or ceasefire dynamics.

The train station will be considered captured if any part of the icon 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 railroad station, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.

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.
