Req fails to handle specific proxy

[o-roditis-sportradar]

I am trying to use Req to access the web through oxylabs proxy. It used to work up to a point, until it stopped suddenly. I am currently using version 5.6.0. The first time I used this proxy was with version 4.8.0, so I tried that version and it still fails.
My guess is, something must have changed from the oxylabs side. However, I am able to use oxylabs through a browser, with curl, Insomnia, and HTTPoison in Elixir. So, whatever the change might have been, it should be something that should be handled.

Here is the request from the same computer done with curl, with verbose output:

user@laptop:~$ curl -x "http://gr-pr.oxylabs.io:40100" https://duckduckgo.com -L -v
