Philippine senator hides in Senate as ICC issues arrest warrant over Duterte drug war

TL;DR Summary
The International Criminal Court unsealed an arrest warrant for former Philippine police chief Ronald Dela Rosa over his alleged indirect role in murders tied to Duterte’s deadly drug war. He fled into the Philippine Senate when police arrived, prompting a lockdown as authorities sought to detain him. Duterte’s broader case has factored into the timeline, with his own arrest and charges linked to crimes against humanity, and eight co-perpetrators named in the ICC proceedings.
