Prosecutors in South Korea are seeking to formally arrest former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun for allegedly colluding with President Yoon Suk Yeol in imposing martial law last week.

The Justice Ministry has issued travel bans for President Yoon and eight others, considering them key suspects in the martial law case.
