South Korean police used force to disperse crowds supporting impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol near the presidential residence in central Seoul on Thursday. The action followed a court-issued arrest warrant linked to ongoing legal proceedings, according to Yonhap News Agency.
Tensions flared as authorities sought to clear the area, highlighting deepening political divisions in the country. The warrant, approved earlier this week, marks a critical turn in Yoon's impeachment saga, which has gripped national headlines since his removal from office.
📢 'This is about upholding the rule of law,' a police spokesperson stated, while protesters accused the government of overreach. Analysts say the standoff could shape South Korea's political stability ahead of pivotal elections next year.
