South Korean opposition leader Lee Jae-myung stabbed, local media reports

South Korean opposition party leader Lee Jae-myung was attacked on Tuesday while talking to reporters in the port city of Busan, Yonhap news agency reported.

Images aired on South Korean television channels showed Lee on the ground as someone pressed a handkerchief on his neck.

Video on social media appeared to show a man wearing a blue paper crown lunge at Lee and hit him with something in the neck as Lee was speaking to a crowd of reporters. Lee then appears to collapse as multiple people, including cameramen, crowd around him.
