00:00A South Korean court sentences former president Yoon Suk-yeol to 30 years in prison over charges
00:06linked to military drones sent over Pyongyang, North Korea. The military drones allegedly helped
00:11Yoon create a pretext for his failed December 2024 martial law declaration. The Seoul Central
00:17District Court found Yoon guilty of abuse of power and aiding the enemy and for allegedly
00:21conspiring in the October 2024 drone incursion. Yoon denies wrongdoing and his lawyers say he
00:27neither ordered nor approved the operation. The ruling adds to a series of judgments against the
00:32ousted conservative leader. He was removed from office last year after the constitutional court
00:37upheld his impeachment, triggering a snap election that was won by liberal president Lee Jae-myung.
