Haiti’s ruling presidential council has fired the country’s prime minister, Garry Conille, after barely six months and named businessman Didier Fils-Aimé to replace him in an act that some political leaders say is illegal.

Haiti replaces prime minister, marking more turmoil in its democratic transition.
