VIDEO| Tanks on Seoul Streets, Protesters March Against South Korean Prez Yoon | Dramatic Scenes
South Korea witnessed a dramatic day as President Yoon Suk Yeol’s unprecedented declaration of martial law sent shockwaves through the nation.
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.
The martial law announcement, the first in over four decades, was abruptly reversed hours later amid mounting backlash and a parliamentary vote blocking the move.
Opposition parties have since submitted a motion to impeach President Yoon, who accused his critics of being “anti-state forces.”

North Korea has conducted a ballistic missile test coinciding with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to South Korea for high-level diplomatic talks. The missile, believed to be an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM), traveled over 1,100 kilometers before landing in the sea. South Korea's military condemned the act as a "clear provocation," while the timing raises questions about Pyongyang's intent to influence the summit discussions. As tensions rise, South Korea, the U.S., and Japan are coordinating their response. Is this a strategic warning from North Korea, or a sign of further escalation to come?
