# South Korea’s former president, Yoon Suk Yeol, has been indicted on additional charges of abusing power and aiding an enemy state. This relates to his short-lived imposition of martial law last year. The country’s special prosecutor says Yoon attempted to provoke military conflict between South and North Korea to declare martial law, citing evidence found on a military official’s mobile phone. Yoon was removed from office by the Constitutional Court in April and is on trial for insurrection stemming from his failed martial law declaration.
