South Korean parliament sees unexpected military deployment as crisis unfolds

In a shocking pre-dawn incident at Seoulʼs parliament building hundreds of armed troops showed-up right after President Yoon Suk Yeol made an un-expected martial law declaration. The fast-moving situation caused law-makers to rush to the building in middle of night (which looked like scenes from action movie)

The opposition didnt waste time and took quick steps: they brought forward an impeachment motion against the president; calling for his step-down from office. This whole mess isnt just random – its connected to South-Koreas recent political ups-and-downs

The sudden military presence at the national assembly building made quite a scene: troops in full combat gear stood guard while politicians hurried through security checkpoints. The whole thing seemed un-real but its just another chapter in the countryʼs complex political story
