ICC says Philippines' Duterte can stand trial over war on drugs
On April 24, 2026, a three-judge panel at the International Criminal Court (ICC) confirmed there are substantial grounds to proceed with a trial against former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte on charges of crimes against humanity linked to his deadly anti-drug crackdown, which human rights groups estimate resulted in 30,000 deaths between 2016 and 2022. Duterte, who was arrested in the Philippines in March 2025 and transferred to The Hague, denies the charges; his legal team’s prior attempts to dismiss the case based on jurisdiction and health grounds were rejected.
