**Ongoing US-Israeli air and missile campaigns against Iranian military, nuclear, and leadership targets since February 28, 2026, have shaped trader views on any ground operation confirmation.** Joint strikes under Operations Roaring Lion and Epic Fury eliminated senior Iranian commanders, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, degraded air defenses and ballistic missile infrastructure, and hit nuclear sites, relying on precision airstrikes and special operations rather than large-scale ground forces. Subsequent ceasefires, failed 60-day negotiations over the Strait of Hormuz, and renewed exchanges through August have kept focus on aerial and economic pressure. As of late August, no verified Israeli ground incursions into Iranian territory have occurred, with assessments highlighting logistical barriers, high costs, and preference for standoff capabilities. Any confirmation would likely require explicit official statements or visible troop movements amid stalled diplomacy and intermittent strikes.

A "ground operation" is defined as a military operation that involves Israeli military ground forces conducting operations within Iranian territory.
For the purposes of this market, aerial and maritime operations will not be considered. Only operations involving Israeli troops on the ground within the terrestrial territory of Iran will qualify.
Official confirmation by the Israeli military of personnel operating on the ground within Iranian territory during the specified timeframe will resolve this market immediately. An overwhelming consensus of credible reporting confirming that the Israeli military personnel operated on the ground within Iranian territory during the specified timeframe will also suffice.
Qualifying confirmations include statements such as the June 25, 2025, statement by IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir confirmed that Israeli commando forces operated covertly on the ground inside Iran during the 12-day war.
Confirmations referring only to non-military Israeli intelligence activity, including operations by the Mossad or Shin Bet, as well as airstrikes, cyberattacks, standoff weapons, remote sabotage, or actions by proxies or third parties without Israeli military presence, will not alone qualify.
Incidents that would not alone suffice include the November 2025 Mossad statement indicating its agents were present during protests in Iran, or the July 31, 2024, assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, widely attributed to Mossad agents.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information by the Israeli military; however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting will also suffice.
