South Korea’s Constitutional Court is poised to rule Friday on whether to dismiss or reinstate impeached conservative President Yoon Suk Yeol.

SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea’s Constitutional Court will rule Friday on whether to dismiss impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol. The opposition-controlled National Assembly in December voted to impeach Yoon over his short-lived martial law decree that plunged South Korea into political turmoil.

The Constitutional Court will announce on Friday whether Yoon Suk Yeol, who was impeached in December for declaring martial law, will be permanently removed from office or restored to power.
