Here are the latest developments in the coronavirus crisis:
Trump 'mild symptoms'
US President Donald Trump spends the night in hospital with COVID-19 after the bombshell news of his positive test result comes just a month before a tense election.
Trump's doctor says the president no longer has a fever, is not receiving extra oxygen and is "doing very well".
However a source with knowledge of the US president's condition said his "vitals over the last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical".
India passes 100,000 dead
The number of corornavirus deaths rises to 100,842 in India, which has the world's third highest toll behind the United States with 208,731 and Brazil on 145,388.
Across the world, the virus had killed at least 1,029,593 people since emerging in China in late 2019, according to an AFP tally at 1100 GMT Saturday based on official sources.
More than 34.6 million cases have been officially diagnosed.
Madrid braces for closure
The Spanish capital Madrid wakes up Saturday in a partial lockdown that will cut it off from the rest of the country.
The new restrictions, which came into force at 10:00 pm Friday and will also apply to nine other nearby towns where infection rates are high, will mean people are only allowed to leave their area for work, school, medical or legal reasons.
Germany protests
Around a thousand people form a human chain on the Germany-Switzerland border to protest measures aimed at stemming the spread of coronavirus — well short of the expected 15,000 people organisers had hoped for.
The protesters — self-described "free-thinkers" — gather for around half an hour on the shores of Lake Constance, which borders Germany, Switzerland and Austria, watched by a heavy police presence.
New measures in Tehran
Iran reimposes measures in Tehran province to contain the virus days after confirming another record number of cases, state TV reports.
Under the restrictions, universities and education centres, mosques, cinemas, museums, wedding halls, beauty salons, gyms, cafes, zoos and swimming pools will be closed for a week.
Tunisian hospitals struggling
Tunisian hospitals are struggling to cope with an influx of virus patients due to a lack of staff and resources.
"If we don't manage to flatten this curve, which is really going up, we risk being overwhelmed," says Dr Hechmi Louzir, spokesman of the scientific committee for the fight against COVID-19.
