Issue: Site Not Opening in Google News App

Hi Team,
We’re facing an issue where Eurasian Times articles are not opening in the Google News app.

Steps to reproduce:
A. Open the Google News mobile app.
B. Search for Eurasian Times.
C. Tap on any of the articles.

Example URL of an article as seen in the Google News app:

https://www-eurasiantimes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.eurasiantimes.com/russian-flanker-fighter-jet-that-27-years-ago/?amp_js_v=0.1

When accessed directly in a browser, this URL works correctly. However, when opened via the Google News app (with the AMP prefix https://www-eurasiantimes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/), the page loads as blank.

We also attempted to curl the above story URL. Please find the response attached.

Hi,

Regarding the CORS headers, we are using the AMP plugin. We have already reviewed the AMP plugin code, and the required headers are included by default.

Sample code from the plugin:

public static function send_cors_headers() {
		$origin        = null;
		$source_origin = null;
		if ( isset( $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'] ) ) {
			$origin = wp_validate_redirect( wp_sanitize_redirect( esc_url_raw( wp_unslash( $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'] ) ) ) );
		}
		if ( isset( self::$purged_amp_query_vars['__amp_source_origin'] ) ) {
			$source_origin = wp_validate_redirect( wp_sanitize_redirect( esc_url_raw( self::$purged_amp_query_vars['__amp_source_origin'] ) ) );
		}
		if ( ! $origin ) {
			$origin = $source_origin;
		}
		if ( $origin ) {
			self::send_header( 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin', $origin, [ 'replace' => false ] );
			self::send_header( 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', 'true' );
			self::send_header( 'Vary', 'Origin', [ 'replace' => false ] );
		}
		if ( $source_origin ) {
			self::send_header( 'AMP-Access-Control-Allow-Source-Origin', $source_origin );
			self::send_header( 'Access-Control-Expose-Headers', 'AMP-Access-Control-Allow-Source-Origin', [ 'replace' => false ] );
		}
	}
