Any recommendations how to handle such things? @Lonami

Current workaround is to use parse_mode= "HTML"

I'm struggling a lot with RTL. If you clone the repository and add a new test in

def test_offset_rtl():
    """
    https://github.com/LonamiWebs/Telethon/issues/4401
    """
    text =...
    entities = [...]
    parsed = ...

then I'd be able to more easily test and reproduce the problem. You can also run it offline with:

pytest -ktest_offset_rtl -vvv
