  • Israel accuses Iran/proxies of plane stabbing incident by Oct 31? — the market puts it at 6%, with $17k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Nov 2026. The market resolves to "Yes" if the Israeli government officially states that Iran or its proxies deliberately caused the Flydubai pilot stabbing incident by October 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. The statement must come from an authorized representative acting in an official capacity, such as a Prime Minister or Cabinet Minister.
