Answer
French prosecutors arrest four more suspects in the Louvre jewel heist, raising the total to eight. The stolen jewels, valued at about $102 million, remain unrecovered. A 2018 security audit had flagged the targeted balcony and window as vulnerabilities, but current museum management was unaware of the report until after the theft. The incident has sparked criticism and questions about the museum's security oversight.
