Haiti polls postponed after electoral body is dissolved

General elections scheduled for November in Haiti have been postponed indefinitely after the country's prime minister dismissed all members of the body which organises elections.

Prime Minister Ariel Henry said he would appoint a new electoral council, but has not said when he would do so.
...
André Michel of the opposition grouping Popular and Democratic Sector, described it on Twitter as "an important step" which would open the door to the appointment of a new "credible and legitimate" CEP.

But the renewed delay of the elections is also likely to throw Haiti into even more uncertainty at a time of extreme crisis.
