South Korea’s ex-President Yoon gets 30 years over drone operation

South Korea's ex-President Yoon Suk Yeol has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for sending military drones into North Korea. Prosecutors argued this was aimed at creating a pretext for his martial law declaration. The drone flights triggered a spike in military tensions between the nations. Yoon had denied wrongdoing, but special prosecutors said his actions undermined state security. The ruling adds to a series of judgements against the ousted conservative leader, who was removed from office after his impeachment.
