SEOUL, South Korea — Police faced off with security officials as they sought to raid South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol’s office Wednesday and one of his top lieutenants attempted suicide after being arrested, in a dramatic escalation of the crisis engulfing the key U.S. ally after the failed attempt to impose martial law.

Investigators said they had been unable to enter Yoon’s office due to the standoff. Raids were also being conducted at the offices of the National Police Agency, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency and the National Assembly Police Guards.

The raids came as opposition lawmakers were set to resubmit a motion to impeach Yoon over his short-lived martial law declaration, which plunged the East Asian democracy into chaos last week. More Here
