President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders declaring a national emergency over Cuba’s policies and authorizing tariffs on foreign oil suppliers have intensified economic pressure on Havana, building on the administration’s halt of Venezuelan oil shipments and broader sanctions targeting regime officials. These steps, alongside Trump’s public remarks suggesting “Cuba is next” and potential shows of force, have shaped trader views on the likelihood of U.S. military action by year-end. U.S. officials have clarified that no imminent military operations are planned, emphasizing diplomatic channels and existing naval operations focused on drug interdiction in the Caribbean rather than direct confrontation. Cuba has condemned the rhetoric as provocative while preparing defensive measures. Scheduled developments such as ongoing Senate reviews of sanctions authority and any escalation tied to regional drug or migration flows could still shift assessments in either direction.

For the purposes of this market, a qualifying "strike" is defined as the use of aerial bombs, drones, or missiles (including FPV and ATGM strikes as well as cruise or ballistic missiles) launched by any United States operatives, including military forces, intelligence agencies, or other U.S. government operatives, that physically impact ground territory within the listed country.
A strike on any area within the terrestrial territory (including rivers, lakes, ports, but excluding territorial sea) of the listed country counts.
Missiles or drones that are intercepted and surface-to-air missile strikes will not be sufficient for a "Yes" resolution, regardless of whether they land territory or cause damage.
Actions such as artillery fire, small arms fire, ground incursions, naval shelling, or cyberattacks will not qualify.
Any strike occurring during this market’s timeframe that is claimed by either Donald Trump or the U.S. government will qualify.
The primary resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.
This market will remain open until the end of the second day after the resolution time. If the date/time of a qualifying strike cannot be confirmed by a consensus of credible reporting by that time, it will resolve to "No" regardless of whether a strike was later confirmed to have taken place.
