South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol survived an impeachment vote in the opposition-led parliament late on Saturday, prompted by his short-lived attempt to impose martial law last week, per Reuters. However, the leader of his party said the president would effectively be excluded from his duties before eventually stepping down.
Thousands of people rallied in front of the parliament in Seoul on Sunday, calling for the impeachment and arrest of Yoon and the disbandment of his ruling party.
