The rules provide detailed technical definitions for what counts as a qualifying military action, explicitly excluding intercepted munitions, falling debris, rocket artillery, and short-range drones. However, determining whether a strike was fully intercepted or directly impacted sovereign terrestrial territory relies on assessing military statements and credible media reporting, which can be conflicting or ambiguous during active conflict. If conflicting reports emerge near the deadline, resolution may be delayed by up to three days to evaluate the totality of information, leaving final judgment to consensus reporting rather than a single definitive arbiter.

Market explained before close
This market measures whether a ceasefire between Israel and Iran holds through October 27, defined specifically by the absence of directly impacting qualifying airstrikes or surface-to-surface missile strikes between the two countries.
How it resolves
The market resolves to Yes if a state of ceasefire remains in effect between Israel and Iran through October 27 at 11:59 PM Iran Standard Time (IRST). The market resolves to No if either Israel or Iran conducts a qualifying military action against the other country between market creation and that time. A qualifying action is an airstrike (including bombs, air-to-surface missiles, and air-launched drones) or a surface-to-surface missile strike (including one-way attack drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles) that directly impacts the terrestrial territory or internal waters of the other country. Munitions intercepted or destroyed before impact, debris or wreckage, surface-to-air missiles, small-arms fire, ground incursions, cyber operations, naval or artillery fire, rocket artillery, and short-range loitering munitions or FPV drones do not qualify. Resolution is determined by a consensus of official information from the governments and militaries of Israel and Iran, as well as credible reporting. If reports conflict, the market may remain open up to 3 full calendar days from the first credibly reported evidence before resolving on the totality of available information.

Resolution rules at close
This market will resolve to "Yes" if a state of ceasefire remains in effect between Israel and Iran through the listed date, 11:59 PM Iran Standard Time (IRST). Otherwise this market will resolve to “No”. A state of ceasefire will be considered to no longer be in effect between Israel and Iran if either Israel or Iran takes a qualifying military action against the other country between market creation and the listed date, 11:59 PM IRST. A qualifying military action refers to an air strike or a surface-to-surface missile strike, initiated by Israel or Iran, that directly impacts the other country. An air strike includes bombs, air-to-surface missiles, and air-launched drones. A surface-to-surface missile strike includes one-way attack drones and surface-to-surface missiles such as cruise or ballistic missiles. The following actions do not constitute a qualifying military action: Munitions destroyed or intercepted before impact; Surface-to-air missile strikes; Small-arms fire; Ground incursions; Cyber operations; Naval gunfire and artillery fire; Howitzers, artillery pieces, mortars, and rocket artillery (e.g. MLRS systems); Minor surface-to-surface strikes, including short range loitering munitions, FPV drones, and ATGM strikes; Any threat, authorization, or announcement of force that has not been executed. Any munition that is intercepted or destroyed before impact does not constitute a qualifying military action. Debris, fragments, or any wreckage from intercepted munitions that land on Israel or Iran do not constitute a military action regardless of any damage incurred. A military action will be considered to impact Israel or Iran if it directly impacts the terrestrial territory of Israel or Iran, including any internal waters. Maritime territory and airspace are not encompassed. Where territorial borders are disputed, all territory claimed by and under the de facto control of the relevant state as of market creation will qualify. The occurrence, attribution, and timing of a qualifying military action will be primarily determined based on a consensus of information available from the resolution sources. Where multiple sources conflict regarding the occurrence, attribution, or timing of a relevant military action, this market will remain open until the earlier of: i) the confirmation of the occurrence, attribution, and timing of the action based on a consensus of information available from the resolution sources or ii) 3 full calendar days (IRST) from the date of the first credibly reported evidence of the action. If this period would extend past the end date, this market will remain open to allow for 3 full calendar days to pass. If, at the end of the third calendar day, conflicting reports remain as to the occurrence, attribution, or timing of the action, this market will resolve based on the totality of information available from the resolution sources at that time. No single statement, denial, or presentation of evidence will govern where it is contradicted by the totality of information. The resolution sources for this market will be official information from the governments and militaries of Israel and Iran and credible reporting.
