[BUG] Send location link not localized

Post by Griev0us
English:
I'm at 4 9-я Подлесная улица, Ижевск, drive here using Waze: https://waze.to/lr/hv4jgd3x25
Español:
Estoy en 4 9-я Подлесная улица, Ижевск, conduce aquí usando Waze: https://waze.to/lr/hv4jgd3x25
Russian:
Я здесь: 4 9-я Подлесная улица, Ижевск. Приезжай сюда с Waze: https://waze.to/lr/hv4jgd3x25
Link always leads to English site
https://mobile-web.world.waze.com/en_GB ... =v4jgd3x25

But the people to whom I am sending a link, do not understand English :(

I can confirm that links are always being redirected to "eng_GB" URL.

I checked several times with different links and using Redirect checking tools such as Redirect Check, the result is always a url with "eng_GB" in it.

Griev0us, a workaround while this is solved could be to generate the link from the Waze app, open it, change to language code in the URL to "ru" and then use an URL shortening tool like goo.gl to create a shorter version.
This is however a very long process fore something that should happen automatically.
