This market tracks whether Russian forces will capture the train station in Orikhiv, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, by a specified deadline. On Polymarket, the probability that Russia captures the station by December 31, 2026 stands at 85.0%, while the probability of capture by September 30, 2026 is 51.0%. Resolution will be determined by the ISW Ukraine map, with DeepStateMap as a secondary source if needed. Watch for updates to the ISW map through the end of 2026, as any persistent shading indicating Russian control through a full daily update cycle will trigger resolution.
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.

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.

The Will Russia capture Orikhiv by...? market resolves on Jan 1, 2027. Resolution depends on whether credible sources confirm that Russian forces have captured and maintained control of Orikhiv by that deadline. The outcome is determined by established resolution criteria that assess territorial control at the specified time. Traders should monitor official announcements, military reports, and geopolitical developments leading up to the resolution date. Early resolution may occur if the outcome becomes definitively clear before the deadline, allowing traders to lock in positions based on confirmed information.
Key catalysts include major military offensives or retreats in the Zaporizhzhia region, changes in Russian supply lines or troop deployments, and shifts in Ukrainian defensive capabilities or reinforcements. International military aid announcements, sanctions escalation, or diplomatic developments could alter strategic calculations and shift market odds. Battlefield reports, casualty figures, and territorial gains or losses near Orikhiv will directly influence trader sentiment. Weather patterns affecting military operations, leadership changes, and statements from Russian or Ukrainian officials regarding strategic priorities may also move prices. Real-time conflict updates and intelligence assessments will be primary drivers of market movement through Jan 1, 2027.
