Qantas has reported an annual loss of almost AUD $2 billion as it deals with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. The Australian airline says much of the loss was due to writing down the value of assets and redundancy payments.

The firm also says around 4,000 of its 6,000 planned job cuts are expected to be finalised by the end of next month.
