South Korea's anti-corruption agency detains impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol over his brief declaration of martial law.

South Korea’s anti-corruption agency says impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol has been detained hours after the hundreds of the agency’s investigators and police officers arrived at his presidential compound to apprehend him.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been arrested for questioning, according to the country’s anti corruption agency, in the latest chapter of a weekslong political saga that began with the embattled president’s shock martial law decree last month.
