I'm continuing to tell you the news.

The National Assembly has passed a proposal for emergency martial law.

They are demanding the nullification of martial law declaration.

What's the Pentagon's position?

[Reporter]
As the National Assembly said, the request for the lifting of the emergency martial law has been approved, but the martial law history is still maintained.

It is said that martial law history will be maintained until a separate order from the president is given.

It's still urgent inside and outside the government building. Police and military personnel are controlling around the entrance.

The Ministry of National Defense said that starting at 11:19 p.m., an emergency call was made under the direction of Minister Kim Yong-hyun.

Because of this, the officials of the government office continue to be busy. There is also an emergency standby order for commanders above the battalion commander level.

There was once an order to get out all outsiders while tightening control over the entire building, but at one point, reporters were stopped from entering or told to leave the compound.

The Ministry of National Defense ordered the entire military to strengthen its preparedness along with emergency alert, but it is said that most of the air force for emergency standby, including fighter jets, are currently on air surveillance.

Martial law forces are still being seen throughout the city, right?

[Reporter]
That's right.

Armed martial law troops once broke the window of the National Assembly and entered the main office of the National Assembly.

There was also a breaking news that additional entry into the National Assembly's compound was made, but some say that he left the National Assembly's compound.

I'll send it to you as soon as it's confirmed.

At this time, officials and aides sprayed fire extinguishers and there was once a big disturbance.

A large number of paramedics are being deployed to prepare for emergency situations.

Helicopters have floated over the National Assembly, and armored vehicles are being witnessed one after another in downtown Seoul.

[Anchor]
President Yoon Suk Yeol has declared a state of emergency, and the National Assembly has passed a resolution calling for the lifting of the state of emergency.Ma has yet to lift the martial law declaration.

So now, the military continues to take over the security administration.

The military authorities have not officially announced yet, right?

[Reporter]
That's right.

As I told you earlier, martial law history will continue to be maintained until the president gives a separate order.

As soon as we confirm this, we will report it further and deliver it to you.

[Anchor]
The martial law command announced the proclamation earlier, so please summarize this one more time.

[Reporter]
The martial law command announced proclamation No. 1 a while ago, but no additional announcement has been made yet.

To summarize the contents of Pogoryeong No. 1, which was announced just a moment ago, there are a total of six.

First of all, the National Assembly, political party activities, including political associations and assembly demonstrations, were first included.

He also said that he would ban any act of denying or overturning the liberal democratic system and prohibit fake news, manipulation of public opinion, and false incitement.

He also said that all media and publications should be controlled by martial law.

{5th time, medical professionals and others are on strike. Medical professionals who have left the medical field will return to their main job within 48 hours, or they will be punished by martial law.

He also said that if the decree is violated, it can be arrested, detained, and raided without a warrant according to the special action rights of the commander of martial law in Article 9 of the martial law.

Finally, he added at the end that the general public, except for anti-state forces and those who overthrow the system, will take measures to minimize the inconvenience of daily life.

[Anchor]
So what kind of measures should I know that this is Emergency martial law decree No. 1?

[Reporter]
Proclamation is when the martial law commander takes all measures deemed necessary, including measures to limit constitutional rights within the scope of martial law.

According to the martial law law, it is divided into emergency martial law and security martial law, and this emergency martial law is taken by the president when there is a wartime-event or equivalent national emergency, and when the social order is extremely disturbed.

In addition, if the martial law commander is unable to perform administrative and judicial functions, the martial law commander will be directed and supervised by the Minister of National Defense for the enforcement of martial law.

It is said that if the whole country is a martial law area and if the president needs to direct and supervise himself, he is under the direction and supervision of the president, but the target area is not clearly stated in the presidential proclamation or proclamation.

However, experts believe that "the whole country" was actually set as a martial law area based on measures such as local councils under the decree No. 1 or the return of majors.

I'll let you know as soon as the details are covered.

So far, I'm YTN Park Heejae from the Ministry of National Defense.
