'Nothing can justify' prolonged Israeli occupation in Lebanon: France FM

France's foreign minister said Tuesday that nothing could justify Israeli troops remaining deep inside Lebanon, after Israel and Hezbollah clashed overnight despite a U.S. announcement that both sides had agreed to halt fighting.

"Nothing can justify the continuation of military operations and Israel's prolonged occupation deep inside Lebanese territory," Jean-Noel Barrot told France TV.
