AUTHORITIES are urgently appealing for information to help find a Ukrainian woman who vanished following a car crash in southern Spain.

Relatives say they have been trying to track her down for four weeks with the help of lawyers, social media and the press.

The missing woman is described as being 163 centimetres tall with light brown hair.

Officers are urging anyone with information regarding her whereabouts to contact the Policia Nacional immediately.
