The dismissed officials include Lt. Gen. Yeo In-hyung, Maj. Gen. Moon Sang-ho, Lt. Gen. Lee Jin-woo, and Lt. Gen. Kwak Jong-keun, according to the Defense Ministry.
The decision follows ongoing legal reviews for Army Chief of Staff Gen. Park An-su, who led the martial law operations. The dismissed commanders will be officially notified on Tuesday.
