THE HAGUE, Netherlands — The International Criminal Court Tuesday confirmed it had issued an arrest warrant against former Philippines leader Rodrigo Duterte over alleged crimes against humanity during his deadly war on drugs.

"Once a suspect is in ICC custody, an initial appearance hearing will be scheduled," said ICC spokesman Fadi Abdullah.

Duterte was already on a plane to The Hague where he will face charges.
