Ex-South Korean Leader Faces 30-Year Term Over Pyongyang Drone Flights

Prosecutors in Seoul have asked for a 30-year prison term for ousted President Yoon Suk Yeol, alleging he tried to escalate tensions with North Korea by ordering drone flights over Pyongyang in 2024 to justify martial law; he faces multiple indictments, including abusing power, while a separate life sentence for rebellion was handed earlier and is under appeal, and his defense denies the charges.
