One month after the spectacular burglary at the Louvre museum, the fourth presumed commando member was arrested on Tuesday, November 25, along with three other suspects. Meanwhile, a 2018 security audit already identified the used balcony as a major vulnerability point. The stolen jewels, valued at an estimated 88 million euros, remain unrecovered.
A dirty water leak on November 26 damaged 300 to 400 books in the Louvre's Egyptian Antiquities library. These 19th and 20th-century scientific documents, used by researchers, show no irremediable losses. The incident highlights the museum's aging infrastructure issues.
