| Prosecutors have arrested a top official in Egypt’s culture ministry and several museum security guards pending an investigation into the theft of a van Gogh painting over the weekend, Reuters reported. The painting of a vase filled with yellow poppies is known as “Poppy Flowers” or “Vase and Flowers” and is valued at more than $50 million; it remains missing after being stolen Saturday from the Mohamed Mahmoud Khalil Museum in Giza, where none of the alarms and only some of the security cameras were working at the time.
