Former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte was arrested Tuesday, March 11, in Manila under a warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC). Authorities detained Duterte, 79, at the airport upon his return from Hong Kong. The warrant stems from the ICC’s ongoing investigation into his administration’s war on drugs, which led to thousands of extrajudicial killings.
