South Korea dismissed four top military commanders over their role in impeached President Yoon's December martial law decree, with legal reviews ongoing.
South Korean authorities dismissed four senior military commanders on Monday over their involvement in the December 2024 martial law decree by impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol, Yonhap News reported.
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.
Meanwhile, police raided the presidential office to secure documents related to Yoon’s martial law declaration. Yoon, formally arrested and moved to solitary confinement at the Seoul Detention Center, is the first sitting president to face arrest in South Korea’s history.
