On October 26, 2025, French authorities arrested suspects involved in the theft of valuable jewels from Paris' Louvre museum. The heist occurred a week earlier when four masked men stole eight pieces of jewelry worth approximately €88 million ($102 million) from the Apollo Gallery within minutes. Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau confirmed the arrests but did not specify the number of suspects, though media reported two individuals were apprehended in Paris and its suburbs. Interior Minister Laurent Nunez congratulated investigators for their efforts. The museum reopened except for the affected gallery while investigations continued to recover the stolen jewels and apprehend all perpetrators.
