The International Criminal Court, or ICC, confirmed charges of crimes against humanity against former President Rodrigo Duterte. The court finds substantial grounds to believe he orchestrated an anti-drugs campaign that allegedly killed thousands of civilians. It ruled that Duterte bears individual criminal responsibility for murders and attempted murders allegedly committed between November 2011 and March 2019.
