Iran's President Hassan Rouhani urged the International Monetary Fund (IMF) today to give the country its requested $5 billion emergency funding to help Tehran fight the coronavirus outbreak.

"I urge international organisations to fulfill their duties ... we are a member of the IMF ... There should be no discrimination in giving loans," Rouhani said in a televised cabinet meeting.

Rouhani also criticised US sanctions on Iran as "economic and medical terrorism".
