Pakistan has reported 40 new deaths in the last 24 hours, taking its death toll from Covid-19 to more than 1,000.

The country has confirmed more than 47,000 cases so far.

But it has also begun to ease lockdown restrictions, and reopen for business.

The Supreme Court on Monday ordered all shopping malls and markets to stay open even during weekends, saying: "Coronavirus does not go anywhere on Saturday and Sunday. What is the reason behind keeping markets closed on Saturday and Sunday?"
