If one side violates the agreement the other side is freed from its obligations under the agreement. It doesn't always have to lead to war but it provides a justification for war.

Why does violation of the cease fire agreement have to result in the resumption of the conflict?

What else are you going to do? If you assume the terms of the ceasefire agreement were put there for a reason (and they were in this case); if the terms are violated, there literally is no other choice. You can warn the violator (as we have done for years), but at some point, the war has to be resumed.

Seems fairly obvious.
