A 55-year-old Hungarian woman and permanent Cyprus resident died after a head-on collision on the Meneou–Pervolia road, Cypriot police said. Helga Tartsai was driving with her 26-year-old daughter when a car driven by a 26-year-old man collided with their vehicle; the impact trapped Tartsai and firefighters freed her. She was taken to Larnaca General Hospital in critical condition and later died of her injuries. The two other occupants involved were not hurt.

Police said the circumstances of the crash are under investigation and have issued an arrest warrant for the 26-year-old driver. Authorities are appealing for witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage to contact the Larnaca traffic police as inquiries continue.
