Can't access some of the websites for some reason.

I get problems when accessing some websites that I need to use.
The websites just don't open and I get URLs like these ones. Anyone has seen this before?

Quick drive-by before I'm off to sleep, but have you tried clearing browser cache + using a private browser mode? Often websites suddenly breaking is based on having a bad cache of the pages in question. Clearing your browser cache or using a private browser mode (Incognito, inPrivate, etc. depending on browser) should prevent any old copies of the site from interfering. Have you tried different browsers?

Yes, I have tried that. It doesn't seem to work sadly.

May I suggest using a different DNS? I believe Linus Tech Tips has an excellent video on he subject.

I tried Google's, Cloudflare's and Quad9's DNS but none of them made a difference sadly.

I found the reason. Apparently the websites are blocked by our country in a different way so you cannot access it. (They could at least redirect and say it's blocked). I used a VPN to bypass it.
