@thienlnam I've reproduced this on Staging. Here's a side-by-side of staging v. production.

While this is pretty serious, it is no longer a deploy blocker, because we ran a production deploy today while testing changes to the Expensify.cash deploy code. So now this bug is even more urgent, since it is on production. 😉

Found the issue, trying to use withLocalize in RenderHTML was making it so that the tags were not recognized as images and not going through our image handling, working on a fix so we can still use localization there
