Russian forces have conducted repeated ground attacks near Serhiivka, east of Borova in Kharkiv Oblast, as part of broader efforts to advance in the Kupyansk direction amid the wider Donbas and northern frontline operations. Ukrainian counterattacks across multiple sectors—including around Oleksandrivka, Kupyansk, and western Zaporizhia—have recaptured several hundred square kilometers since late 2025 and into 2026, disrupting Russian logistics and forcing reallocations of manpower that limit sustained pressure in secondary areas like Borova. Russian infiltration attempts and small-unit advances continue but face Ukrainian strikes on supply lines and reserves, with no confirmed major territorial shifts reported near Serhiivka in recent months. Ongoing clashes, Ukrainian intermediate-range strikes on rear-area targets, and Russian attempts to maintain offensive tempo remain the dominant variables for any near-term changes in control of the settlement.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if, according to the ISW map, Russia captures the intersection at 48.313021° N, 36.925497° E in Serhiivka, Donetsk Oblast, by the specified date 11:59 PM ET.
The intersection will be considered captured if any part of the intersection 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 intersection, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
