Madeleine McCann’s parents said Wednesday that they still “await a breakthrough” in their daughter’s disappearance on the 16th anniversary of her vanishing from a Portugal hotel room.

“Today marks the 16th anniversary of Madeleine’s abduction. Still missing…….still very much missed,” Kate and Gerry McCann wrote in an update on their official “Find Madeleine” appeal site.

“It is hard to find the words to convey how we feel,” they wrote.

Instead, they shared a poem, “The Contradiction” by Clare Pollard, which details someone feeling the constant presence of a missing loved one, mapping the image of their face and “holding” them “in my head.”

It ends: “How can you be so near and far? You are not here. But here you are.”

The UK couple then thanked well-wishers for the ongoing support in trying to find their daughter, who was just 3 when she vanished on a family vacation in Portugal in 2007.

“The police investigation continues, and we await a breakthrough,” the parents maintained of their ongoing optimism.

The search hit the headlines this year after a Polish woman, Julia Faustyna, claimed she was the long-missing British girl. She apologized to the McCanns after DNA proved her claim untrue.

European officials last year formally declared German rapist Christian Brueckner an official suspect in McCann’s disappearance. He was accused of other sex crimes in the same resort region of Portugal as McCann was taken from her parent’s villa.

However, he has not been charged.

Prosecutors earlier said that they are certain the missing girl — who would turn 20 next month — was murdered.

“We don’t have the body and no parts of the body, but we have enough evidence to say our suspect killed Madeleine McCann,” German prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters told a TV special on the case.
