A private Israeli intel firm says France’s Louvre museum has asked for its help to locate artifacts stolen yesterday in an audacious daylight robbery.
“The Louvre exceptionally asked us to uncover the identity of people involved in the theft and to retrieve the stolen artifacts,” CGI Group CEO Zvika Naveh tells AFP.
Naveh says his company’s past success in locating artifacts stolen from a German museum in 2019 contributed to the Louvre’s choice of his company for the task.
