**Resolves YES if**

YES if a dated report from either side's officials (Umerov/Medinsky/Zelensky/Kremlin) or major international media confirms that the agreed exchange was physically carried out on or before 2026-12-05 with at least 1,000 prisoners returned to each side. A further announcement of intent, a finalized list, or a swap of a few hundred people does not count. Silence does not resolve.
