The arrest of former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte on March 11, 2025, was welcomed with optimism by alleged victims of his war on drugs. Others in the country, however, have responded to the news with scepticism. Duterte has been blamed for the deaths of thousands of people during his war on drugs, which he ordered while he was in office from 2016 to 2022. Current President Ferdinand Marcos Jnr said a plane carrying Duterte had already left Philippine airspace and was headed for The Hague.
