SEOUL, South Korea -- South Korea’s Constitutional Court will rule Friday on whether to formally dismiss or reinstate impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol — a decision that either way will likely deepen domestic divisions.

The court has been deliberating on Yoon’s political fate over his ill-fated imposition of martial law that triggered a massive political crisis.

Mass rallies for and against Yoon Suk Yeol filled the streets on Saturday as the Constitutional Court prepared to rule on whether his ill-fated imposition of martial law justified removal.
