South Korean President Yoon attends fifth hearing of impeachment trial

South Korea’s impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol appeared in court again on Tuesday for hearings that will determine whether he will be officially removed from office. Yoon, who has been arrested and suspended from duties, faces legal proceedings following his declaration of martial law.

The former prosecutor sparked political upheaval when he imposed martial law on December 3, suspending civilian rule and deploying soldiers to parliament. The court's decision will be a crucial step in shaping the country's political future as South Korea navigates this unprecedented situation.
