South Korea bars two former acting presidents from overseas travel

South Korean authorities have imposed travel bans on former acting presidents Han Duck-soo and Choi Sang-mok amid an investigation into alleged insurrection related to former President Yoon Suk-yeol's controversial martial law declaration last year. The police initiated the bans as both figures face scrutiny for their roles in the chaotic events.

Yoon’s martial law was quickly revoked by parliament, leading to a constitutional crisis. He is currently on trial for insurrection, facing severe penalties if convicted. The situation adds to the political turmoil as South Korea prepares for upcoming elections.
