In Aberdeen, the search efforts for Eliza and Henrietta Huszti, missing since January 7th, have intensified as police continue their investigations near the River Dee.

The sisters, both aged 32, were last observed via CCTV footage on Market Street at Victoria Bridge around 2.12 am last Tuesday.

Surveillance captured them crossing the bridge and proceeding onto a footpath adjacent to the river in the direction of the Aberdeen Boat Club.

Police resources, including the marine unit, dog branch, and a helicopter, have been deployed extensively in recent days to trace their whereabouts.

Efforts have been concentrated along the river as authorities mention there is no sign that the women have left the vicinity.

Originally from Hungary and part of a set of triplets, the sisters’ disappearance has prompted collaboration between Police Scotland and their home country's authorities.

Hungarian police are staying in touch with the Huszti's extended family to facilitate information sharing.

The latest communication with their family was made by their brother, Jozsef, who revealed to the BBC that their mother last spoke with them on the first Saturday of January, reporting no unusual behavior or signs of distress.

Police officials continue to appeal to the public for assistance.

Chief Inspector Darren Bruce expressed the urgency of the situation, "Eliza and Henrietta’s family are understandably extremely worried about them and we are working tirelessly to find them."

The sisters are described as white, of slim build, and possess long brown hair.

The authorities urge anyone with potentially useful information to reach out via the police contact number 101, referring to incident number 0735.

As the search efforts resume early this week, hopes remain focused on uncovering new leads in this deeply concerning missing person case.
