Rodrigo Duterte arrested upon arrival in Manila

Rodrigo Duterte, the former President of the Philippines, was arrested at Manila's international airport on Tuesday after arriving from Hong Kong. His arrest follows an order from the International Criminal Court, which is investigating alleged crimes against humanity during his presidency. The ICC claims Duterte's actions during his "war on drugs" resulted in thousands of deaths from 2011 to 2019. While official reports state around 6,000 deaths, human rights groups estimate the number could be over 20,000. The Philippine government, under President Ferdinand Marcos, has indicated it will cooperate with the ICC's investigation. Duterte had previously expressed defiance towards the ICC and stated he would accept any consequences for his actions.
