Russian forces reportedly advanced into Dovha Balka, a village in Donetsk Oblast's Kostyantynivka direction, over the past 48 hours, with OSINT confirming capture of adjacent Stepanivka and Ukrainian 109th Territorial Defense Brigade strikes on infiltrated positions there. This follows incremental Russian offensives in the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka area, where ISW assessments through April 11 noted continued operations but no verified territorial gains in the village itself—key for market resolution per ISW maps showing any Russian control. Ongoing frontline clashes, artillery duels, and potential escalations remain the primary drivers, with no major diplomatic shifts in the past 30 days. Traders monitor daily ISW updates ahead of the resolution deadline.

Territory will be considered captured if any part of the specified territory is shaded under a below specified layer on the ISW map (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36a7f6a6f5a9448496de641cf64bd375) by the resolution date. Otherwise, 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 Infiltration Areas in Ukraine", “Assessed Russian Control”, “Assessed Russian Advance In Ukraine”, or “Assessed Russian Gains in the Past 24 Hours” will qualify.
Once a qualifying condition is met, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
If Russia comes into control of the specified 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. However, an announcement of a negotiated settlement that gives Russia de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established.
The primary resolution source for this market will be the ISW Ukraine map. If the ISW map is rendered unavailable, information from DeepStateMap (https://deepstatemap.live/) may be used. If information from both the ISW and DeepStateMap are rendered permanently unavailable, a consensus of credible reporting may be used.
Note: Any temporary glitches or errors in the map will not be considered.
