Police enforcing martial law clash with protesters in South Korea | BBC News | BBC News
Large crowds have clashed with police outside the South Korean National Assembly after the country’s president declared emergency martial law in the country in a late night television address.
In brief, martial law is a temporary rule by military authorities in a time of emergency, when the civil authorities are deemed unable to function.
President Yoon Suk Yeol said martial law is necessary to protect the country from North Korea’s communist forces and to eliminate anti-state elements.
South Koreaâs main opposition party leader Lee Jae-myung has condemned the move, calling it unconstitutional.
The move comes as Yoon’s People Power Party and the main opposition Democratic Party continue to disagree over next year’s budget bill.

Spain’s prime minister Pedro SĂĄnchez has called a snap election.
The move comes after his series of measures to tackle the housing crisis was defeated in parliament on Friday.
Those measures were drafted after nationwide protests, triggered by the eviction of an 87-year-old from her home for failing to pay a sharp rent increase.
SĂĄnchez has been Spain’s prime minister since 2018 and the country was not due to hold a general election until summer 2027.

Tens of thousands of people are demonstrating across France, in protest at what they say is under-investment in high schools.
Some protests over the past week in France have turned violent, as protesters and authorities clashed.
French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu said: “Burning down a high school does not improve the state of high school buildings. Lynching a teacher does not help replace teachers”, adding it is a “lie” to suggest the government had ordered “police repression” against demonstrators.

Brits seeking mental health support are travelling overseas for psychedelic therapy.
The treatments involve substances such as psilocybin and ayahuasca, both of which are illegal under UK law.
At the same time, researchers are conducting clinical trials to investigate whether something similar could have a place here.
While campaigners argue the treatments could transform care, further evidence is needed and significant regulatory hurdles remain.
