South Korea's Justice Ministry imposes a travel ban on President Yoon over martial law

[NYPOST] South Korea's Justice Ministry on Monday imposed an overseas travel ban on President Yoon Suk Yeol as authorities investigate allegations of rebellion and other charges in connection with his short-lived declaration of martial law last week.

Yoon's martial law decree last Tuesday, which brought special forces troops into Seoul streets, plunged South Korea into political turmoil and caused worry among its key diplomatic partners and neighbors.

On Saturday, Yoon avoided an opposition-led bid to impeach him, with most governing party politicians boycotting a parliamentary vote. But the opposition parties vowed to submit a new impeachment motion against him this week.
