Protest actions of the public of broad stripes are further intensified across south Korea to oust traitor Yoon Suk Yeol who destroys and sells everything of the nation to the outside forces and drives the people into the abyss of death while resorting to sycophantic treachery, fascist dictatorship and pro-conglomerate policy.

Civic and public organizations in different regions including Taejon and Taegu held meetings, press conferences and candlelight rallies in front of the Taejon City Office and other places and abused that the country was thrown into unimaginable situation after the Yoon Suk Yeol "regime" came to power and that peace, democracy and people's life were totally destroyed and the nuclear war crisis was created.

The National Federation of Peasants Associations, the General Federation of Women Peasants Associations, the Progressive Federation of Students, the National Teachers Union, the Confederation of Trade Unions and other organizations of different sections are waging a struggle against war and for peace, vital rights and resignation of Yoon Suk Yeol.

After labour organizations announced that they would go on a large-scale general strike for the resignation of traitor Yoon Suk Yeol, the Railway Workers' Union entered into the struggle for the resignation of his "regime" on the 14th.

The 4th pan-national rally and the 57th candlelight struggle for the resignation of puppet traitor Yoon Suk Yeol took place in Seoul on the 16th.

The struggle was participated in by the Headquarters of the Movement for the Resignation of the Yoon Suk Yeol "Regime", the Confederation of Trade Unions, the People's Action and other public organizations and tens of thousands of people of broad stripes including workers, peasants, the poor, youths, students and religionists.

Preliminary rallies were held by the National Federation of Peasants Associations, the General Federation of Women Peasants Associations, the Progressive Federation of Students, the National Teachers Union, the Confederation of Trade Unions and other organizations in front of the Japanese embassy and different other places of Seoul and the rest of the country.

Speakers at the rallies branded the Yoon Suk Yeol "regime" as the main culprit intentionally destroying this land and said the world was plunged into the crisis of nuclear holocaust owing to Japan's discharge of nuclear contaminated water and it is none other than Yoon Suk Yeol that gave active assistance to the crime.

The participants marched to the venue of the plenary rally, shouting slogans including "Let's oust Yoon Suk Yeol with candlelight resistance!".

The 4th pan-national rally was held near the Kwanghwamun Railway Station in Seoul under the sponsorship of the Headquarters of the Movement for the Resignation of the Yoon Suk Yeol "Regime".

Speakers at the rally called for toppling with struggle the Yoon Suk Yeol "regime" in an attempt to destroy the people's life, saying they can change the "president" though they can't change the policy of Japan.

The venue of the rally seethed with the wrath of the people from all walks of life and their will to oust puppet villain Yoon Suk Yeol at any cost.

Speakers abused that they had never elected a Jap "president".

They asserted that the Headquarters of the Movement for Pan-National Struggle should be formed to punish the Jap Yoon Suk Yeol and his clan.

Experts said Yoon Suk Yeol is selling everything on this land to the United States and Japan after his consumption to power and maintained that all the people should fight in order to prevent a nuclear war and Japan's discharge of nuclear contaminated water and to drive out the outside forces and terminate the fascist dictatorship.

South Korean media carried articles under different titles including "'Punish the Japanese Governor-General Yoon Suk Yeol!'...National Intensive Candlelight March Grandly Held in September". They said the people branded Yoon Suk Yeol as a spokesman for Japan and a Jap, and added: The will of the people of broad stripes gets stronger as the days pass by to do away with the "Japanese government-general" and oust Yoon Suk Yeol. The struggle of the public of all sections is further expanded in different regions and opposition parties join in it, shaking the whole of the foundation of the power of the Yoon Suk Yeol "regime".
