South Korea’s opposition leader stabbed in neck
South Korea’s opposition party chief Lee Jae-myung has been stabbed in the neck during a visit to the southern port city of Busan on Tuesday.
Mr Lee, 59, was suddenly attacked by a male assailant while he was talking to reporters at a construction site of a new airport on Busan’s Gadeok island.
Disturbing footage of the attack shows Mr Lee in the centre of a jostling crowd of reporters holding digital recorders and television cameras.

Wie denkst du über deine Fehler?🍭
These kind of things happened in any democratic society… Unfortunatelly… Freedom of expression on the extreme…
Any political disagreement should not result in physical harm to the other people
Why don't they have phones in North Korea?
Because they might WING the WONG number.
Don't tell me…Is this another Russian plot to inflame tensions between North and South Korea?
No motivation stated by the attacker? Better find out if he was paid amd trace that money.
Give me strength… Why???
Putin must be held accountable for ordering this hit
This sort of behaviour will possibly come to the streets of London because the people in charge are not liked.
I think they fail to realize that if he dies, it would make him a martyr. Making whatever they were attempting to do backfire
Hey! I've seen this before
Mahina tlga mga bantay
Why would someone easily commit such heinous act upon another? Why?
But did he survive bc that looked like it was straight to the carotid artery or extremely close.
North Korean tentacles……
