Farsi Island remains a restricted Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy outpost in the central Persian Gulf under firm Iranian control amid the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict that escalated in February 2026. U.S. airstrikes have targeted military infrastructure on nearby islands including Larak, Qeshm, and Kharg to disrupt threats to Strait of Hormuz shipping lanes and mining activity, yet these operations have focused on degrading capabilities rather than establishing occupation or transferring sovereignty. Iran continues to exercise primary governmental and military authority over its Gulf islands, with recent IRGC statements affirming naval monitoring from Farsi and no verified developments indicating imminent handover to another state or force. Trader-implied probabilities for loss of control by late September or early October stay very low, reflecting the challenges of rapid territorial shifts through airstrikes and sanctions alone.

"No longer under the control of Iran" means that Iran no longer exercises primary governmental or military control over Farsi Island, and another state, occupying force, or internationally backed authority has established control over the island.
Temporary raids, isolated landings, special operations, bombardment, sabotage, naval presence offshore, or temporary disruption of Iranian activity will not qualify on their own.
An announcement, threat, or claim that Iran has lost control will not qualify without actual control being established.
If control changes pursuant to a negotiated settlement, ceasefire term, surrender, or transfer agreement, this will qualify only once actual control has been established on the island.
If control over Farsi Island is contested, unclear, disputed, or not sufficiently established by the resolution date, this will not qualify, and the market will resolve to "No".
The primary resolution source will be official statements from the relevant governments and militaries, along with a consensus of credible reporting.
