This market will resolve to “Yes” if Israel initiates a major closure of its airspace by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. A “major closure” is defined as a broad closure, cancellation, or complete suspension of commercial aviation across the entirety of Israeli civilian airspace or a region encompassing a majority of Israeli civilian airspace, including commercial flights transiting, arriving in, and departing from that airspace. A qualifying closure must apply generally to all flights across Israel or a qualifying subset of Israeli airspace. Limited cancellations, delays, temporary ground stops or isolated regional closures will not qualify. Limited exceptions to a broad closure, however, will not disqualify such a closure from counting (e.g. exceptions for certain pre-approved flights may be permitted). Warnings, No-Fly-Zones, flight suspensions, or other flight restrictions imposed by airlines or countries other than Israel will not be sufficient for a “Yes” resolution. Airspace closures which occur solely due to weather conditions will not qualify. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Israeli aviation authorities; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Ongoing escalation in the Israel-Iran conflict, marked by US-Israeli strikes on Iranian targets beginning in late February 2026 and subsequent Iranian missile and drone responses, has repeatedly prompted temporary closures or restrictions on Israeli airspace to mitigate risks from retaliatory attacks. Fresh Israeli operations in early June 2026 led Tehran to close sections of its western airspace and heightened alerts across the region, while airlines reroute flights amid strained diplomatic channels. Israeli authorities have maintained monitoring protocols at Ben-Gurion Airport, with airspace open as of mid-June but subject to rapid security assessments tied to any expansion of hostilities. Resolution of related markets depends on whether further defensive measures or preemptive actions necessitate renewed civilian flight restrictions through the summer.
