Yoon says he will lift emergency martial law
President Yoon Suk Yeol announces his intention to lift emergency martial law via a Cabinet meeting in a televised address at the presidential office in Seoul on Dec. 4, 2024. The announcement came hours after the National Assembly unanimously voted in favor of a resolution urging the president to withdraw martial law during an emergency plenary session. Yoon had declared martial law the previous night, citing the need to root out pro-North Korean forces and uphold the constitutional order. (Yonhap)
