@kkartunov both the attachment screenshots and steps to reproduce describe only a single link with the issue. I could not find other links with the same issue. Please review

[kkartunov]

@r0hit-gupta those in the footer need to be handled too.

[r0hit-gupta]

@kkartunov we don't need to add labels to the footer links. They already have text that is visible to screen readers.

[kkartunov]

@r0hit-gupta you are right. Sorry, but have to mark this as duplicate and cancel it. Thanks for your feedback!
