Live Updates: South Korean President Lifts Martial Law After Parliament Votes Against It

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol abandoned a short-lived attempt to impose martial law on Wednesday after lawmakers defied security forces to vote against his declaration and thousands of protesters took to the streets.

South Korean MPs unanimously voted against the imposition of martial law at a midnight session of the National Assembly to denounce the President’s decision.

“We will accept the National Assembly’s request and lift the martial law through the Cabinet meeting”, Yoon said in a televised address.

Here are the live updates of the situation in South Korea:
