ReutersSouth Korea lawmakers vote in second bid to impeach Yoon over martial law debacle
SEOUL (Reuters) -South Korean lawmakers started voting on Saturday on a second motion to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol over his attempt to impose martial law, a move that shocked the nation, split his party and imperilled his presidency half way through his term.The fresh attempt faces the risk of failure after media reported that Yoon's People Power Party had decided to maintain its official position to vote against the impeachment. However, seven PPP members have said publicly they intend to back impeachment. The opposition parties, which control 192 seats, need at least eight PPP votes for the motion to pass.

South Korea's president faces second impeachment vote over martial law order
The president's decision plunged the country into a constitutional crisis and triggered calls for him to step down on the grounds he had broken the law. The country's opposition parties began holding the vote at around 4:30pm local today (7:30am in the UK) and need two-thirds of the National Assembly to back the motion, meaning at least 200 MPs. While the opposition commands 192 seats, a vote to impeach the president failed last Saturday when all but one MP from the ruling People Power Party (PPP) boycotted the vote.
