President of South Korea declares martial law, parliament rejects it

While the military entered Parliament, hundreds gathered in front of the assembly, standing against the martial law. The members of parliament from both the majority and Opposition voted to block the law, which, if enacted, essentially would have suspended all parliamentary activity. These moves come as Yoon's People Power Party and the Democratic Party continue to disagree over next year's budget bill.
