Overview
South Korean authorities attempted to execute an arrest warrant for impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol amid ongoing political turmoil. During a dramatic standoff at Yoon's residence, investigators were obstructed by his security detail and a crowd of supporters vehemently opposing the arrest. The authorities later withdrew, citing safety concerns. Yoon faces charges related to his controversial martial law declaration in December, which has led to widespread political unrest and his impeachment. The Constitutional Court is deliberating Yoon's impeachment, with his future in office hanging in the balance.
