South Korean police called off an arrest attempt on suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol after a tense six-hour standoff with his security team and military forces. Yoon, under investigation for abuse of power and inciting insurrection, was set to be the first sitting president arrested in South Korea. Supporters, gathered outside Yoon's residence, cheered as authorities halted the operation. Despite the failure, investigations continue, and police are considering a new arrest attempt before the current warrant expires. Yoon’s defiance and ongoing legal battles deepen the political crisis in South Korea.
