Ishiba, 68, served as the prime minister of Japan for 386 days.
In the hours to come, the lower house of the Japanese parliament will convene for an urgent session, during which the new chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), Sanae Takaichi, will be elected as the new prime minister, becoming the first female prime minister in the history of Japan.
