This market will resolve to "Yes" if participation by Israeli military personnel in a ground operation in Iran on or after February 28, 2026, is confirmed by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. A "ground operation" is defined as a military operation that involves Israeli military ground forces conducting operations within Iranian territory. For the purposes of this market, aerial and maritime operations will not be considered. Only operations involving Israeli troops on the ground within the terrestrial territory of Iran will qualify. Official confirmation by the Israeli military of personnel operating on the ground within Iranian territory during the specified timeframe will resolve this market immediately. An overwhelming consensus of credible reporting confirming that the Israeli military personnel operated on the ground within Iranian territory during the specified timeframe will also suffice. Qualifying confirmations include statements such as the June 25, 2025, statement by IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir confirming that Israeli commando forces operated covertly on the ground inside Iran during the 12-day war. Confirmations referring only to non-military Israeli intelligence activity, including operations by the Mossad or Shin Bet, as well as airstrikes, cyberattacks, standoff weapons, remote sabotage, or actions by proxies or third parties without Israeli military presence, will not alone qualify. Incidents that would not alone suffice include the November 2025 Mossad statement indicating its agents were present during protests in Iran, or the July 31, 2024, assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, widely attributed to Mossad agents. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information by the Israeli military; however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting will also suffice.

Israeli officials continue to prioritize airstrikes, targeted killings, and economic pressure against Iran following the 2025-2026 exchanges that destroyed key nuclear and missile sites, including joint US-Israeli operations that eliminated Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. As of mid-September 2026, satellite imagery confirms rapid rebuilding at facilities such as Taleghan 2, prompting renewed Israeli warnings from Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz about regime survival and potential further strikes if Iran resumes missile activity or advances its nuclear program. Discussions of ground operations, including earlier unexecuted plans involving Kurdish forces, have not materialized into confirmed deployments, reflecting high logistical barriers, US restraint, and a strategic focus on air superiority and sanctions. Upcoming UN General Assembly sessions and any Iranian responses to economic measures could influence escalation risks.
