Russian forces have made incremental advances on the Kostyantynivka front in Donetsk Oblast, pushing toward Dovha Balka with geolocated footage showing infantry infiltrations and artillery exchanges as of April 12, per ISW assessments and OSINT reports. Ukrainian counterattacks, including 109th Brigade drone strikes on Russian positions inside the village, have slowed progress, maintaining contested control without confirmed capture of the key Tsentralna volytsia x Peremohy volytsia intersection that defines market resolution. Ongoing frontline clashes reflect broader Russian pressure in the Pokrovsk direction, but Ukrainian defenses and resupply challenges introduce uncertainty ahead of potential spring offensives.

Territory will be considered captured if any part of the specified territory is shaded under a below specified layer on the ISW map (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36a7f6a6f5a9448496de641cf64bd375) by the resolution date. Otherwise, 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 Infiltration Areas in Ukraine", “Assessed Russian Control”, “Assessed Russian Advance In Ukraine”, or “Assessed Russian Gains in the Past 24 Hours” will qualify.
Once a qualifying condition is met, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
If Russia comes into control of the specified 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. However, an announcement of a negotiated settlement that gives Russia de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established.
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 will not be considered.
