This market will resolve to "Yes" if the United States commences a military offensive intended to establish control over any portion of Iran by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, land de facto controlled by Iran or the United States as of November 4, 2025 12:00 PM ET, will be considered the sovereign territory of that country. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible sources.Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects a 65.5% implied probability against a U.S. ground invasion of Iran before 2027, driven by the Trump administration's restraint to airstrikes, naval blockades, and targeted operations since the February 28, 2026, conflict onset with Israel, which have degraded Iran's missile capabilities, navy, and nuclear infrastructure without committing ground troops. Recent de-escalation signals include a two-week ceasefire agreed April 7, ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations in Islamabad over Strait of Hormuz access and nuclear restraints, and President Trump's April 1 speeches declaring core objectives nearing completion amid rejected Iranian proposals lacking sufficient nuclear curbs. With no official ground invasion plans announced despite CENTCOM strike preparations and troop buildups, traders weigh high invasion costs against diplomatic off-ramps, though stalled talks or Iranian provocations could prompt escalation before year-end.
