Facing the same issue

Hello, thank you both for reporting the issue and I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I'm currently working on the fix and I'll keep you updated about the progress here.

Hello again, I've just published the fix, see the example run with extracted images: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/oqDhZjFezcTVZHdAi

There was a change of Google News API. They introduced a more complex mechanism for encoding target news URLs. The Actor now uses a hacky way to deal with this new encoding, so hopefully the Google News API will remain stable and won't change again soon 🤞
