--- Comment #4 from ⁨خالد حسني⁩ <[email protected]> ---
This is not a regression, the linked commit is fixing a real issue.

The issue here is a fundamental difference in how LibreOffice and Microsoft
Office handle text direction. LibreOffice simply follows the Unicode
Bidirectional Text algorithm, and the result it gives is the conformant one.
Microsoft Office will use the keyboard language to guess that portions of the
text are English and thus should be left to right even of the whole paragraph
is right to left.

There is no easy way to fix this, and the inline direction information probably
gets lost when opening the file in LibreOffice since it does not have something
similar to map it to.
