Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 jumped 2.6% to 20,179.09 in afternoon trading, helped partly by local media reports about fresh government aid to ride out the pandemic. South Korea's Kospi added 1.1% to 1,948.95. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 rose 0.7% to 5,403.00. Hong Kong's Hang Seng gained 1% to 24,220.65, while the Shanghai Composite picked up 0.7% to 2,892.80.
