South Korea is facing a political crisis as President Yoon Suk Yeol unexpectedly declared martial law, sending soldiers to Parliament after it rejected the measure. In a televised address, Yoon accused the opposition of sympathizing with North Korea and aimed to ‘eliminate pro-North Korean elements.’ The announcement drew bipartisan criticism, with the National Assembly swiftly voting to revoke the martial law. The U.S. government is monitoring the situation closely as tensions rise within South Korea’s political landscape.
