• [Anchor] President Yoon Seok-yeol has declared martial law, and the National Assembly has passed a resolution demanding the lifting of martial law, but the president has not yet lifted the martial law declaration. So the military is currently taking over public security administration. There has been no official statement from the military authorities, right?
