This market will resolve to "Yes" if Pakistan initiates a drone, missile, or air strike on the soil of Afghanistan or any official Afghan embassy or consulate by the listed date, 11:59 PM Afghanistan Time (GMT+4:30). 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 Pakistani military forces that impact Afghan ground territory or any official Afghan embassy or consulate (e.g., if a weapons depot on Afghan soil is hit by a Pakistani 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 Afghan territory or cause damage. Actions such as artillery fire, small arms fire, FPV or ground based ATGM strikes directly, ground incursions, naval shelling, cyberattacks, or other operations conducted by Pakistani ground operatives will not qualify. The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting. If the date/time of a strike cannot be confirmed by a consensus of credible reporting by the end of the third calendar date after this market's end date, it will resolve to "No" regardless of whether a strike was later confirmed to have taken place.Pakistan conducted airstrikes on December 24, 2024, targeting Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants in Afghanistan's Khost and Paktika provinces, reportedly killing at least four people and prompting strong condemnation from the Taliban government as a sovereignty violation. Kabul summoned Pakistan's envoy and denied harboring militants, while Islamabad accused the Afghan Taliban of sheltering TTP fighters responsible for rising cross-border attacks in Pakistan. This latest escalation follows a pattern of artillery exchanges and strikes along the disputed Durand Line throughout 2024, amid stalled diplomatic efforts. Traders watch for Taliban retaliation, potential UN mediation, or bilateral talks that could signal de-escalation or further military action before the market resolution date.
