https://www.abc.com/news/video - Works If by "works" you mean "doesn't match", then I agree. Maybe you should clarify what URLs should match, what URLs should not match, and what information (if any) you are trying to extract. I can give you a regex that matches all three URLs: `.*` but I guess that's not specific enough for you. So be more specific in your requirements.
