Ex-president Duterte to make initial appearance at ICC
In the UAE, the hearing will be at 5:00 PM, while in the Philippines, it will be at 9:00 PM.
The hearing will take place before Pre-Trial Chamber I at the ICC headquarters in The Hague, Netherlands, which will be streamed in English and French on its official website.
During the session, ICC judges will confirm Duterte's identity, determine the language he understands, and inform him of the charges and his rights under the ICC Rome Statute.
The Pre-Trial Chamber I handling the case consists of Judge Iulia Antoanella Motoc (Presiding), Judge Reine Adélaïde Sophie Alapini-Gansou, and Judge María del Socorro Flores Liera.
Shortly after arriving from Hong Kong, Duterte was arrested by the authorities at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, following an arrest warrant issued by the ICC.
He faces charges of murder as a crime against humanity, allegedly committed between November 1, 2011, and March 16, 2019, during his tenure as President of the Philippines and Mayor of Davao City.
He was surrendered to the custody of ICC on March 12.

VP Sara still expected at SONA, House ready to welcome her if she attends
Vice President Sara Duterte is still expected to attend President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s State of the Nation Address (SONA), according to House spokesperson Princess Abante, despite Duterte's earlier announcement that she would skip the event. Abante emphasized that attending the SONA is part of the vice president's responsibilities. If Duterte changes her mind, the House of Representatives is ready to welcome her to the event, which will be held in the Batasang Pambansa complex. Preparations for the SONA are already 90 to 95 percent complete, according to Abante, with around 1,500 attendees expected—similar to last year. Despite recent rains, she noted that preparations continued smoothly. No security threats have been reported, and all inter-agency coordination meetings have been concluded. The House Secretary-General confirmed that invitations have been sent out and that most seats in the plenary and viewing areas are already taken. The House will go on lockdown from July 23 to 27 to ensure security, allowing only essential personnel to enter. The 20th Congress will also open its regular session in the morning ahead of the SONA.
