The US military's precision raid capturing Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on January 3 marked the first such operation against a foreign head of state since Saddam Hussein in 2003, satisfying the "another" threshold early in 2026 and anchoring trader consensus at 92.5% for no repeat. With no subsequent special forces actions reported through mid-May—despite US strikes killing Iran's Supreme Leader in February and rhetorical pressure on Cuba's regime—markets reflect the rarity of these high-risk interventions, last seen sporadically over decades amid limited ongoing conflicts suitable for leader captures. Absent major escalations like new invasions or no-confidence triggers abroad, traders see slim paths for another before year-end, though diplomatic announcements or military deployments could shift odds.

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.
