Rolls-Royce, the British maker of plane engines, has said that it will cut at least 9,000 jobs and slash costs elsewhere, as the coronavirus slams the aviation sector.
"This is not a crisis of our making. But it is the crisis that we face and we must deal with it," chief executive Warren East said in a statement announcing that Rolls would cut nearly one-fifth of its global workforce.
"Our airline customers and airframe partners are having to adapt and so must we."
