South Korean police raided President Yoon Suk Yeol’s office on Wednesday, investigating his failed attempt to impose martial law last week. While investigators accessed civil service offices, security guards blocked entry to the main building.
Yoon faces impeachment and charges of insurrection as protests demanding his resignation continue. Former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, linked to the martial law plan, attempted suicide in detention but is stable.
Opposition lawmakers have condemned Yoon’s deal to shorten his term, calling it unconstitutional. Analysts suggest impeachment and legal action against Yoon are imminent. The political situation remains volatile.
