Russian forces continue assaults northeast of Lyman near Drobysheve in Donetsk Oblast as part of their intensified Spring-Summer 2026 offensive, with attacks reported on March 26-27 but no confirmed advances per Institute for the Study of War assessments. Earlier Russian Ministry of Defense claims on March 2 and General Gerasimov's March 16 statement asserted capture of Drobysheve alongside Yarova and Sosnove, though geolocated evidence shows only partial Russian presence—24% control in Drobysheve—amid ongoing Ukrainian counteractions and heavy losses on both sides. Traders weigh persistent escalation risks, Ukrainian drone and artillery defenses, and the broader push toward Slovyansk, with no major diplomatic breakthroughs to alter momentum. Resolution hinges on verifiable full occupation by the market deadline.

Drobysheve will be considered captured if the entirety of the municipality 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 March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, 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.
The territory of the municipality is shaded in light grey and is distinguished from bordering municipalities with a darker grey line. If all area within the municipality is shaded in red, however, the shading does not precisely match up with the border such that there is a tiny amount of grey along the border of the city, this will still qualify for a "Yes" resolution.
Once Russia captures the entirety of Drobysheve, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.

The primary resolution source for this market will be the ISW Ukraine map. If the ISW map is rendered unavailable, information from DeepStateMap (https://deepstatemap.live/) may be used. If information from both the ISW and DeepStateMap are rendered permanently unavailable, a consensus of credible reporting may be used.
Note: Any temporary glitches or errors in the map which will not be considered.
If Russia comes into control of this territory as a result of a negotiated settlement, this will qualify for a 'Yes' resolution, regardless of if it is shaded red in the ISW map. An announcement of a negotiated settlement which gives Russia de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established.
