Motion to impeach South Korean president fails after vote boycott
Briefly

The motion to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol fell through due to his party's boycott, depriving the vote of the required two-thirds majority in the national assembly.
The dramatic walkout by members of Yoon's People Power party left the assembly without the 200 votes needed, casting uncertainty on the president's future amid widespread protests.
Despite initial indications that some members of the PPP might support the impeachment, the party rallied behind Yoon, leading to an unexpected reversal in their support.
Yoon's declaration of martial law, lasting just six hours, sparked significant backlash across South Korea, resulting in mass protests and condemnation from both sides of the political spectrum.
