True.
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo on 28 June 1914 was the immediate trigger that set off the July Crisis and a chain of diplomatic and military escalations among the great powers, leading to World War I. It was not the sole cause, however — underlying factors such as militarism, rival alliances, imperialism, and nationalism made a large-scale war far more likely.
