The US military's capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on January 3, 2026, via a special forces raid in Operation Absolute Resolve marked the sole such event this year, fulfilling the "first" instance amid heightened tensions over Venezuela's alleged narco-terrorism ties. With no subsequent US interventions targeting other heads of state—despite ongoing military buildups in the Middle East and diplomatic frictions with Iran—traders price another capture at just 7.5%, reflecting the rarity of these high-risk operations and current de-escalation signals, including resumed US-Venezuela flights and Trump administration talks with Cuba. Absent major escalations like new invasions or sanctions breaches prompting raids, the wisdom of crowds sees slim odds for a repeat before year-end.

Only individuals who are the active head of state of a UN member state at the time of capture will qualify. Acting/interim heads of state will qualify if they are widely recognized as holding the head-of-state office at that time.
For the purposes of this market, “capture” means the head of state is taken into physical custody and detained (including arrest, detention, or seizure) such that they are no longer free to leave at will, even if only temporarily. Voluntary surrender may qualify if it results in immediate detention/custody.
U.S. personnel must directly participate on the ground to qualify. Intelligence, surveillance, planning, logistics, transport, support, funding, training, or advisory roles alone will not count, even if they materially contribute to the operation. If U.S. personnel are physically present in the operational area and take direct action (e.g., raiding, detaining, securing, physically transferring custody), it will qualify. U.S. government contractors will be considered to be U.S. personnel if they are confirmed to be acting under the direction of U.S. government authorities.
The primary resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting.
