Russian forces have conducted repeated infiltration attempts toward Bilytske, a settlement north of Pokrovsk in Donetsk Oblast, as part of broader operations in the Pokrovsk direction aimed at expanding footholds near Dobropillia. Russian claims of control emerged in July 2026, yet geolocated footage through mid-August confirms Ukrainian strikes on Russian personnel in central Bilytske and maintained Ukrainian positions northwest of the settlement. Overall Russian territorial gains across the front have slowed markedly in 2026, averaging far below prior rates amid Ukrainian defensive actions and drone-enabled interdiction. Ongoing clashes in the sector, combined with Ukrainian counter-pressure, continue to shape assessments of whether Russian forces can achieve and hold full capture by any near-term deadline.

The building will be considered captured if any part of the building is shaded red under a below-specified layer on the ISW map (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36a7f6a6f5a9448496de641cf64bd375) by the resolution date. If the area is not shaded red by the specified date 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.
If Russia comes into control of this 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. An announcement of a negotiated settlement that gives Russia de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established.
Once Russia captures the building under the above-specified conditions, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market.
