This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Israeli government announces the reopening/opening of any embassy or consulate in Iran, or if such a reopening/opening is otherwise confirmed, by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". An official announcement made within this market’s timeframe will qualify for a "Yes" resolution regardless of whether an actual embassy or consulate opening subsequently takes place within the timeframe. Any opening of an Israeli embassy or consulate in Iran will qualify regardless of its exact location. Announcements that do not clearly commit to opening an embassy or consulate, such as general diplomatic statements, exploratory comments, or partial/conditional steps, will not count. The resolution source will be official statements from the Government of Israel; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Ongoing US-Israeli military operations against Iran, launched February 28, 2026, with over 600 strikes on ballistic missile sites and nuclear facilities, have driven trader consensus to an 87.5% implied probability against Israel reopening its embassy in Tehran this year. Iran rejected a US 15-point de-escalation plan on March 25, retaliating with missile attacks on Israel and Gulf states amid no diplomatic breakthrough. Persistent direct hostilities—escalating from prior proxy conflicts and April 2024 exchanges—underscore profound enmity, with Tehran refusing Israel's existence and Jerusalem viewing Iran as an existential threat. Absent regime change or improbable peace treaty, structural barriers like mutual non-recognition render normalization implausible before year-end.
