A 20-year-old OnlyFans model from Ukraine, Maria Kovalchuk, who had been missing for 10 days, was found badly injured on the side of a road in Dubai.
According to reports, Maria went missing after attending a hotel party in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on March 9. Her family grew worried when she didn’t catch her scheduled flight to Thailand on March 11. After days of searching, she was finally found on March 19 near a road in Dubai with serious injuries, including a broken spine and multiple fractures in her limbs.
Maria was immediately taken to the hospital, where doctors performed several surgeries to treat her injuries. Dubai police confirmed that she was receiving medical care and that her family was with her.

Authorities also explained how they believe she got hurt. According to the police, Maria entered a restricted construction site by herself and accidentally fell from a height. They said their conclusion was based on a full investigation.
However, Maria’s family does not agree with this explanation. They believe she did not fall at a construction site. Before she went missing, Maria told her mother she was staying with two men who claimed to be in the modeling industry. She also mentioned canceling her planned trip to Thailand. After the hotel party, her family never heard from her again.
Maria’s mother shared her concerns, saying that there are suspicions she attended a party, but the promoter in charge of such events said he did not see her there. She also revealed that her daughter was found without any documents or a phone and is currently unable to speak after undergoing medical procedures.
Despite the shocking incident, Maria’s mother remains hopeful. She said her daughter is getting proper medical treatment and is expected to recover.
Dubai Police stated that they are working closely with Maria’s family and other authorities to provide all necessary help. They also urged people not to spread unverified information and to respect the privacy of Maria and her family during this difficult time.
