In South Korea, all parliamentary and political party activities have been suspended following the imposition of martial law.
The directive was issued by General Park An-Soo, appointed to oversee the martial law enforcement. According to Yonhap news agency, martial law has been declared in the Republic of Korea.
Additionally, strict control has been implemented over the operations of all South Korean media. On December 3, President Yoon Suk-yeol declared a state of emergency in a televised address, accusing opposition members of engaging in “anti-state activities preparing for a rebellion.”
Meanwhile, South Korea’s Ministry of Defense convened a meeting with “key commanders,” while the entrances to the country’s parliament have been blocked.
