- The Former Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte, wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC), for crimes against humanity arrested in Manila.
- During his reign, more than 5,000 people had been killed across the country, including 2,041 drug suspects eliminated in police operations.
- He withdrew from the Hague-based ICC in March 2019.
- But under the ICC rules, even if a state withdraws as a member, the court retains jurisdiction over crimes within its administration that are committed during the membership period.
