No confirmed Israeli ground operation in Iran has occurred amid the ongoing 2026 US-Israel-Iran conflict, which escalated with nearly 900 joint airstrikes on February 28 targeting Iranian missile sites, air defenses, and infrastructure, followed by Iranian ballistic missile barrages toward Israel on April 1–6 from sites including Ramsar. Israel retaliated by striking Iran's largest petrochemical facility on April 6, halting operations, while reports of Mossad and IDF special forces incursions surfaced on March 3. Trader consensus reflects skepticism over a full-scale invasion due to Iran's vast terrain, fortified defenses, and distance from Israel, with US deliberations on limited ground roles adding uncertainty. Upcoming diplomatic efforts or Hormuz Strait tensions could drive further escalation or de-escalation.

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.
