South Korean President Yoon Impeached Amid Martial Law Controversy

South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol has been impeached by lawmakers following his controversial declaration of martial law, which disrupted the democratic order and led to widespread calls for his removal. With his presidential powers suspended, Prime Minister Han Duck-soo is serving as interim president while the Constitutional Court has 180 days to decide on the impeachment's validity. If upheld, a snap election will be held to elect a new president. Yoon's actions have been criticized as authoritarian, and he faces potential legal consequences, including charges of insurrection.
