With many blaming Israel for the killing, there is mounting fear that Haniyeh’s death could put any efforts to reach a viable ceasefire deal in Gaza at risk and even expand the Israel-Hamas war into a larger regional conflict.
由於許多人將暗殺事件歸咎於以色列，人們越來越擔心哈尼雅的死可能會危及任何在加薩達成有效停火協議的努力，甚至將以色列和哈瑪斯的衝突擴大，演變為更大的區域性衝突。

They believe that the timing of this killing makes it a clear act of retaliation by Israel for the July 27 rocket attack by Hezbollah, a supporter of Hamas, which killed 12 children and young people in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
他們認為，這次暗殺的時間點明顯是以色列對7月27日支持哈瑪斯的真主黨發動火箭襲擊的報復行動，該次襲擊在以色列佔領的戈蘭高地殺害了12名兒童和青年。

In his report on the incident, the BBC’s Paul Adams notes that Haniyeh’s killing “may have followed the same pattern” as other Israeli military operations abroad.
英國廣播公司的保羅·亞當斯在他的報導中指出，哈尼雅的遇害「可能遵循了相同的模式」，就像以色列在國外的其他軍事行動一樣。

He also states that progress on an Israel-Hamas ceasefire in the wake of the assassination could be impossible.
他也指出，在暗殺事件後，以色列和哈瑪斯的停火可能無法取得進展。

As groups around the region process Haniyeh’s death, Adams says that the general feeling among critics of Israel’s government — as noted by Turkey’s foreign ministry — is that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “has no intention of achieving peace.”
亞當斯提到，隨著該區域各方應對哈尼雅之死，批評以色列政府的人士普遍認為——土耳其外交部也指出——以色列總理納坦雅胡「無意實現和平」。

And now, with Iran swearing to punish Israel for Haniyeh’s assassination, it appears that a peaceful solution to the region’s growing conflicts is likely to remain out of reach.
而現在，伊朗宣誓要因哈尼雅的暗殺事件懲罰以色列，看來要和平解決該區域日益增長的衝突，似乎仍遙不可及。
