(2 months ago)The Philippines Senate closed with military personnel who were seen entering the building, where a senator wanted by the International Criminal Court had sought refuge.
According to foreign media, Telegrafi records, gun shots were heard there, but officials have not found out who fired.
They said there were no victims.
Senator Ronald Dela Rosa earlier said he believed his arrest was imminent and called on the Philippians to prevent him.
He is safe and security personnel, officials have said.
He is accused of killing dozens of people when he was chief of police during the war of former President Rodrigo Duttere against drugs, in which thousands of suspected traffickers were shot and killed.
Duterte has been held in The Hague since March 2025.
Meanwhile, protesters outside the Senate sought the detention of Dela Rossa, demanding that he be sent to be tried with Duterten.
And his lawyers have turned to the Supreme Court to block his extradition.
