Error fetching economic calendar: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

Did a rerun of a code that worked at the start of 2025, now unfortunately it is not functional anymore. Did they change something on the Investing.com side? If anyone knows what happened, we could look into this together. Code:

class GetInvesting:
    def __init__(self, start_date="2024-01-01", end_date="2025-01-01"):
        self.start_date = self.ensure_ddmmyyyy(start_date)
        self.end_date = self.ensure_ddmmyyyy(end_date)
        self.today = dt.date.today().strftime("%d_%m_%Y")

    @staticmethod
    def ensure_ddmmyyyy(date_str):
        try:
            dt.datetime.strptime(date_str, "%d/%m/%Y")  # Already in DD/MM/YYYY
            return date_str
        except ValueError:
            return dt.datetime.strptime(date_str, "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%d/%m/%Y")

    def fetch(self):
        """Fetch the economic calendar."""
        try:
            xstart_date = dt.datetime.strptime(self.start_date, "%d/%m/%Y")
            xend_date = dt.datetime.strptime(self.end_date, "%d/%m/%Y")

            # Fetch the economic calendar data
            x = inv.news.economic_calendar(from_date=self.start_date, to_date=self.end_date)

            if 'date' in x.columns:
                x['date'] = pd.to_datetime(x['date'], format='%d/%m/%Y').dt.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')

            file_path = f"investpy_test/{xstart_date.strftime('%Y%m%d')}_{xend_date.strftime('%Y%m%d')}_econcalendar_investingcom.csv"
            x.to_csv(file_path, index=False)
            print(f"Economic calendar data saved to {file_path}")
            print('GetInvesting Done')
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Error fetching economic calendar: {e}")
