Despite recommendations from a decade ago, the Louvre Museums security upgrades wont be completed until 2032. This revelation comes after a major heist in November, where robbers stole jewels worth $102 million. A state auditors report, compiled before the robbery, highlighted significant security shortcomings, including only 39% of rooms having cameras in 2024. The report also pointed to overspending, lost revenue, and inefficiencies. Four suspects have been charged, but the stolen treasures remain missing. French officials promise extra security by the end of the year, with the Louvres director supporting the auditors recommendations for a long-term transformation plan.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
