     The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) has announced a general strike in response to Yoon’s declaration of martial law and called for the president to resign, according to Korean media.

     “We will go on an indefinite general strike until the Yoon administration steps down,” the union said in a statement.

     The union drew a connection to the martial law order and previous efforts by military forces to undermine democracy, which often included attacks on organised labour.
