Russian forces continue incremental advances in Donetsk Oblast toward key objectives including Slovyansk, Kostyantynivka, and Pokrovsk, with recent infiltrations reported east and southeast of Slovyansk as of late August 2026. Havrylivka, a small settlement in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast at coordinates near the current contact line, lies beyond immediate Russian forward positions and would require substantial further territorial gains to reach. Trader consensus prices low probabilities for capture by year-end deadlines, reflecting the slow pace of Russian ground operations, high attrition rates, Ukrainian defensive reinforcements, and the absence of confirmed breakthroughs in that specific sector. Putin’s stated goal of securing all of Donetsk Oblast by December 31, 2026, provides a broader operational timeline, though progress remains measured and subject to Ukrainian counteractions, logistics constraints, and seasonal factors.

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.
