Yesterday's key developments:

• Hezbollah's deputy leader Naim Qassem said on Sunday that the group was ready for all "military possibilities", adding that the confrontation with Israel had become an "open-ended battle of reckoning". 
• More than 100 rockets were fired into Israel from Lebanon early Sunday, the Israeli army said, with some landing near the northern city of Haifa. Hezbollah earlier claimed it attacked Israeli military production sites in response to blasts earlier this week targeting the group's communications devices.
