PERUVIAN President Pedro Castillo will renew his cabinet and appoint his fifth prime minister in 13 months after accepting the resignation of Anibal Torres.
Mr Torres resigned on Thursday night after Congress refused his challenge of a confidence vote.
The opposition-controlled Congress has repeatedly sought to impeach the socialist president, first elected last year, and has passed a law blocking the national electoral authority from holding referendums on constitutional matters without congressional approval.
