Saudi Arabia's sustained truce with Yemen's Houthis, in place since a 2022 ceasefire and extended through diplomatic channels, forms the core driver behind the 89% implied probability favoring no military action by March 31. Recent developments reinforce trader consensus: Riyadh resumed direct talks with Houthi representatives in Sanaa on March 22 amid Red Sea shipping tensions, prioritizing de-escalation over escalation despite Houthi drone and missile strikes on Saudi oil facilities. No official announcements or troop mobilizations signal renewed intervention, aligning with Saudi Vision 2030 economic diversification away from prolonged conflict. This restraint, amid U.S.-led strikes on Houthis, reflects skin-in-the-game assessments of low escalation risk before the deadline.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Saudi Arabia initiates a drone, missile, or air strike on Yemeni soil or any official Yemen embassy or consulate by the listed date, 11:59 PM Arabian Standard Time (GMT+3). Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
For the purposes of this market, a qualifying "military action" is defined as the use of aerial bombs, drones or missiles (including cruise or ballistic missiles) launched by Saudi Arabia's military forces that impact Yemen ground territory or any official Yemen embassy or consulate (e.g., if a weapons depot on Yemen soil is hit by an Saudi Arabian missile, this market will resolve to "Yes").
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 on Yemen territory or cause damage.
Actions such as artillery fire, small arms fire, FPV or ATGM strikes directly, ground incursions, naval shelling, cyberattacks, or other operations conducted by Saudi Arabian ground operatives will not qualify.
The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.
If no qualifying strike is confirmed by the resolution date, 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.
