Russian forces have concentrated approximately 150,000 troops and 120 assault groups near Orikhiv in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, drawing from the 58th Combined Arms Army and supporting airborne units, as part of continued offensive operations following the earlier capture of Hulyaipole. Ukrainian commanders report the line of contact unchanged, with Orikhiv remaining under their control and three recent Russian advance attempts near Mala Tokmachka, Shcherbaky, and Stepnohirsk repelled, though expanded buffer zones have complicated Ukrainian logistics and enabled sporadic infiltration attempts. Open-source assessments indicate no confirmed Russian territorial gains in the sector over the past week amid small-unit tactics and Ukrainian counteractions, while broader southern front activity persists without signs of an imminent large-scale breakthrough. These developments frame trader assessments around the pace of incremental Russian pressure versus Ukrainian defensive resilience, with any shift in force ratios, weather, or reinforcements potentially altering the balance in coming weeks.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if, according to the ISW map, Russia captures the train station in Orikhiv (47.559860° N, 35.786219° E), Zaporizhzhia Oblast, by the specified date 11:59 PM ET.
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 train station, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
