Diamond Necklace Worth Millions Stolen from Vienna Museum in Daylight Heist

A historic 673-diamond necklace, once belonging to an Egyptian queen and valued at millions, was stolen from Vienna's Museum of Applied Arts (MAK) in a brazen smash-and-grab raid. Two suspects, believed to have purchased tickets to gain entry, are being sought by authorities after snatching the 200-carat platinum piece during opening hours.

Security camera footage has been released by the police in their hunt for the perpetrators. This incident marks the latest in a series of high-profile art and jewelry thefts targeting European cultural institutions, raising concerns about museum security. The necklace's previous ownership by Egyptian royalty adds to its significant historical and monetary value.
