South Korean authorities have imposed a travel ban on President Yoon Suk Yeol, who is under investigation for attempting to declare martial law last week. Despite surviving a failed impeachment motion, Yoon faces widespread protests and criticism from opposition parties. Key figures involved in the declaration have resigned or been arrested, including former Defence Minister Kim Yong-hyun. The ruling People Power Party (PPP) announced that Yoon would refrain from involvement in state affairs until his early resignation, but the opposition decried the move as unconstitutional, vowing to continue impeachment efforts.
