Thumbnail Link to Youtube Video on Facebook Not Working on iPad

When a link to a Youtube video is posted on Facebook and I try to click on the thumbnail that is created there on my iPad, nothing happens. A click doesn't do anything and holding a finger on the thumbnail doesn't do anything except to make the white part of the thumbnail turn gray until my finger is removed. Clicking the same thumbnail from my iPhone or PC opens the video normally. In the example below, I posted a link and the hypertext for the URL DOES open the video but the thumbnail that Facebook creates doesn't. I'm using an iPad Air 2 and I've updated the iPadOS to 13.5.1 and the Facebook and Youtube apps are up to date.
