The Louvre Museum in Paris is grappling with significant difficulties following a recent water leak that damaged hundreds of rare books in its Egyptian antiquities library. This incident has occurred just weeks after a high-profile jewel heist which resulted in substantial losses estimated at $102 million. In response to the damaging leaks and ongoing concerns regarding working conditions and security, Louvre workers have announced plans for rolling strikes. Trade unions are demanding urgent action to address the poor state of infrastructure, highlighting that the museum is struggling to protect its valuable artifacts amid these crises.
