South Korea’s prime minister, ruling party leaders and presidential office advisers were scheduled to hold an emergency meeting at 2 p.m. local time (12 a.m. ET) on Wednesday.

Axar.az reports that he meeting follows the reversal of President Yoon Suk Yeol’s short-lived martial law decree overnight, which plunged the country into chaos, and as calls grow for the leader to resign. It is unclear whether Yoon will attend the meeting.

Yoon has faced backlash from across the political spectrum, including his own ruling People Power Party, which said it was considering demanding the resignation of his entire Cabinet and the dismissal of Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun. It is also discussing whether to demand Yoon’s resignation.

Here's what's happened so far:

- In a late-night TV address, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law in the democratic nation, arguing that the move was needed to protect the country from North Korean elements and "anti-state forces"

- Less than two hours later, with 190 of its 300 members present, South Korea's parliament voted down the measure and ruled the martial law order invalid.

- Soon after, President Yoon reversed course and the martial law was lifted.

- Large demonstrations took place overnight outside the parliament, with many South Koreans expressing relief that the martial law announcement was taken back.

- Earlier this morning, Yoon's staff offered to resign en masse - although the president himself is yet to make a public appearance.
