Summary

> South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol says he will lift martial law that he announced just a few hours ago in a late night move

> Less than two hours after his declaration, MPs defied the president, gathering at the National Assembly and voting to block his move

> Some broke through barricades or climbed fences to get inside the building; there were scuffles between police and protesters outside

> Demonstrators who had gathered outside parliament to protest the sudden introduction of military rule are now celebrating its equally sudden reversal

US state officials caught totally off guard

Officials in the US State Department were caught totally off guard by President Yoon’s martial law announcement.
It's hard to overstate the strategic importance of the alliance between Washington and Seoul - the US has nearly 30,000 troops in the country which it vows to defend from its nuclear armed neighbour in the north through a wide ranging set of defence agreements.
So for Seoul’s leadership to take such a drastic step without even telling Washington - as the State Department contends - is extraordinary.
The US says it had no advance warning Yoon would declare martial law.
It is not entirely clear whether Secretary of State Antony Blinken - currently in Brussels - was able to speak to his counterpart during the height of this crisis.
Now Yoon has said he will reverse his order I think Washington is wondering what an earth has happened - and will be rapidly reassessing how reliable the leadership of an ally it considers a bedrock of democratic stability in the region actually is.

Martial law will be lifted when ministers meet, says Yoon
published at 03:58

South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol has said in a televised speech that he tried to assemble the cabinet to lift the martial law.
But it's early in the morning here, so they couldn't make it.
He says as soon as he has gathered the minimum number which must be present for martial law to be lifted, he will do so.

US 'seriously concerned' about developments in South Korea

A US National Security Council (NSC) spokesperson says that the US was not told in advance about South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol's plan to declare emergency martial law.

"The administration is in contact with the [Republic of Korea] government and is monitoring the situation closely as we work to learn more," the spokesperson has said in a statement.
"We are seriously concerned by the developments we are seeing on the ground in the [Republic of Korea]."

Meanwhile, a White House official has confirmed that President Biden has been briefed on the situation.

Here's how we got here:

> In a late-night televised address, South Korea’s President Yoon Suk Yeol shocked the nation by declaring martial law

> He said it was intended to protect the country from North Korean communist forces and to eliminate anti-state elements

> After the president’s address, the gates to parliament were shut - hundreds of protesters then gathered outside, with some chanting “no to martial law” and "strike down dictatorship" as police blocked the entrance

> An opposition leader called on lawmakers to assemble in parliament to block the law - they did so successfully at 01:00, with the unanimous backing of the 190 members present
