South Korea’s President Yoon Suk Yeol says he will lift the martial law order that he announced in a late night move-BBC

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

Analysis: Yoon is mired in controversy and has been a lame duck president since the last general election, writes Jake Kwon in Seoul
