The total number of cases in the European country hardest hit by the virus rose to 17,660

Italian foreign minister used the Chinese aid to criticise fellow member states of the EU, who have refused to supply health equipment

Italy on Friday recorded its highest one-day death toll yet from cases of the new coronavirus, according to official data. There were 250 deaths recorded over the past 24 hours, taking the total to 1,266, with 17,660 infections overall, a rise of 2,547 since Thursday evening.

As the World Health Organisation declared Europe to be the new epicentre of the Covid-19 pandemic, China flew 31 tonnes of medical supplies to Rome, along with battle-hardened experts from the region where the virus first took hold.
