**US strike on Mexico by December 31, 2026?** Trader consensus assigns roughly 12-16% probability to a US-initiated drone, missile, or air strike on Mexican soil by year-end. This reflects sustained bilateral security cooperation, including intelligence sharing, joint border exercises, extraditions, and a new drone technology agreement, alongside Mexico’s consistent rejection of unilateral US operations on its territory as a red line. US Southern Command has conducted multiple lethal strikes on suspected narco-vessels in international waters of the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean since late 2025, killing over 200 alleged traffickers, but these fall outside the market’s definition. Cartel designations as foreign terrorist organizations and presidential rhetoric have sustained pressure, yet no large-scale force mobilization or congressional authorization for Mexican land targets has materialized. Key variables that could shift odds include major escalations in fentanyl flows, breakdowns in Mexican operations against groups like CJNG, or policy reversals in the remaining months.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if a US-initiated drone, missile, or air strike on the soil of Mexico is announced or credibly reported to have occurred by the listed date ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
For the purposes of this market, a qualifying "strike" is defined as the use of aerial bombs, drones, or missiles (including FPV and ATGM strikes as well as cruise or ballistic missiles) launched by any United States operatives, including military forces, intelligence agencies, or other U.S. government operatives, that physically impact ground territory within the listed country.
A strike on any area within the terrestrial territory (including rivers, lakes, ports, but excluding territorial sea) of the listed country counts.
Missiles or drones that are intercepted and surface-to-air missile strikes will not be sufficient for a "Yes" resolution, regardless of whether they land territory or cause damage.
Actions such as artillery fire, small arms fire, ground incursions, naval shelling, or cyberattacks will not qualify.
Any strike occurring during this market’s timeframe that is claimed by either Donald Trump or the U.S. government will qualify.
The primary resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.
This market will remain open until the end of the second day after the resolution time. If the date/time of a qualifying strike cannot be confirmed by a consensus of credible reporting by that time, it will resolve to "No" regardless of whether a strike was later confirmed to have taken place.**US strike on Mexico by December 31, 2026?**
