As of March 2026, the war in Ukraine is very much ongoing with active daily combat engagements, airstrikes, and drone attacks on both sides. Russia still occupies ~20% of Ukrainian territory, and while ceasefire negotiations are being attempted, no military settlement has been reached.

The Israel-Iran 'Twelve-Day War' (which started June 13, 2025) ended with a ceasefire announced by Trump on June 23 and taking effect June 24, 2025 — right within the predicted one-week window from the June 23 prediction date.
