Paris's Natural History Museum was robbed of gold samples worth $700,000. Thieves used an angle grinder and blowtorch to break in, exploiting a July cyberattack that disabled security systems. This is the latest in a string of robberies targeting French cultural institutions, including a recent theft of Chinese porcelain in Limoges and previous heists in Paris and Saône-et-Loire.
