South Korean president declares emergency martial law
South Korean leader Yoon Suk-yeol said the announcement was in response to the opposition, which he accused of paralysing the government and sympathising with North Korea.
Russia expressed concern over the unfolding political crisis in South Korea, following President Yoon Suk Yeol's brief declaration of martial law and subsequent reversal. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated that Moscow was monitoring the "tragic situation" in South Korea, but reassured that there were no threats to Russian citizens in the country. Zakharova also pointed to the "provocative actions" of the United States and its allies as contributing factors to the instability on the Korean Peninsula. Russia has recently strengthened its ties with North Korea, including a mutual defense agreement signed between President Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Meanwhile, the political situation in South Korea has sparked international backlash, with lawmakers submitting a bill to impeach President Yoon.

Armored vehicles and troops briefly mobilized on the streets of Seoul, sparking mass protests outside Parliament. Thousands of citizens, braving freezing temperatures, chanted slogans demanding the president's resignation.
