The assassination of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has raised questions about the continuation of the conflict. The world press has also posed a similar question. The killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has garnered extensive coverage in the global media. The American newspaper The Washington Post noted that the Washington administration hoped for a ceasefire in Gaza following Sinwar’s death. President Joe Biden’s words about “a better future opportunity for Israelis and Palestinians” were recalled.

The Wall Street Journal also examined Sinwar’s assassination from a similar angle. The newspaper ran the headline “After Sinwar’s death, Israel faces a choice: Declare victory or continue the fight.” The report mentioned that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicated he would continue fighting until all hostages were released.

The New York Times paid attention to the details of Hamas leader’s killing. It stated, “A surprise encounter on the battlefield led to the death of Hamas leader.” It was reported that a clash occurred during routine patrol duties by Israeli soldiers, and Sinwar’s identity was confirmed after his death.

CNN International featured the latest images of the Hamas leader shared by the Israeli army. The reactions from the global public to Sinwar’s killing were also evaluated. Alongside statements from American and Israeli officials, the comments of Iran’s UN Representative were also included. Amir Said Iravani’s words emphasizing “Sinwar’s death on the battlefield will strengthen the spirit of resistance” were highlighted.

The British BBC announced the news with the headline “The Death of Sinwar a Major Blow for Hamas, but Not the End of the War.” Sinwar’s death was considered one of Israel’s greatest victories in Gaza. However, Netanyahu’s speech after Sinwar’s death was interpreted as a signal to continue the war.

Similar expressions were found in The Guardian. It was noted that both Hamas leaders Haniye and Sinwar, as well as Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah, had been killed by Israel since the start of the conflict on October 7th.

The Telegraph highlighted the pressure Western nations were putting on Netanyahu to end the war. However, it was mentioned that the Israeli Prime Minister would continue the attacks. The article also reported Netanyahu’s call for the remaining Hamas members to “surrender.”
