South Korean lawmakers vote Saturday on whether to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol over his failed martial law bid, in a second parliamentary showdown that remains too close to call.
Caption:
Two hundred votes are needed for the impeachment to pass, meaning opposition lawmakers must convince eight parliamentarians from Yoon's conservative People Power Party to switch sides.Local media is reporting that many are still making up their minds. And K-pop singer Yuri of the band Girl's Generation -- whose song"Into the New World" has become a protest anthem -- said she had pre-paid for food for fans attending the rally.And one protester said she had rented a bus so that parents at the rally could use it to change diapers and feed their babies.Should his impeachment be approved, Yoon would be suspended from office while South Korea's Constitutional Court deliberates.
On Friday, prosecutors said they had arrested a military commander who headed the Capital Defence Command.
