MANILA, Philippines—Prosecutors in the case against former president Rodrigo Duterte have filed a third updated list of evidence with the International Criminal Court (ICC), introducing 14 new items into the record.

The submission, made public over the weekend just days before the start of the scheduled confirmation hearing on Monday, was filed in response to an order from ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I issued on Friday. The document includes a confidential annex detailing the newly added evidentiary materials.

The annex has been classified as confidential pursuant to court regulations due to the inclusion of sensitive witness information. The update expands the total body of evidence currently under review by pre-trial judges as the chamber continues its preliminary assessment of the case.

The filing did not disclose the specific nature of the new evidence, as those details remain under seal in Annex A.
