Israeli strikes Lebanon but still says it's committed to ceasefire

After the Israeli military on Monday attacked dozens of what it says were Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, it added that Israel "remains obligated to the fulfillment of the conditions of the ceasefire agreement", according to the Reuters news agency. 

Earlier on Monday, as Israel declared its intent to bomb Lebanon, US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said there would always be "various violations at times".

"What we don't want to see is the ceasefire break down," he told reporters. "And we've not seen the ceasefire break down. When we get reports of potential violations, we have a mechanism that we put in place with the government of France to look at those potential violations."
