Sounds like Israel broke the cease fire doesn't it? The rest of the story gives a slightly different perspective:
JERUSALEM -- Israel's military said Hezbollah guerrillas fired at least 10 Katyusha rockets into southern Lebanon early today. None hit inside Israel and no injuries were reported.

The rocket explosions reported by Israel came hours after the start of a UN ceasefire in Lebanon. The military said it has not responded to the rockets, which were fired over a two-hour period.

Hezbollah, which frequently used Katyusha rockets in its battle against Israel, has said it will attack Israeli forces in southern Lebanon despite the truce. The army would not comment on whether the rockets landed near Israeli forces there. Katyushas have a range of just over 20 km.
Odd how the headline fails to mention anything about Hezbollah. An accurate headline would have said something along the line of:
Hezbollah Hits Southern Lebanon
