Phantom cursor. Why does it occur?

Why do I get a phantom writing cursor placed in my text when I paste copied text from a google document into Libre office? It is not registered as a character and I can’t highlight it. It can be removed by backspace though.

Screenshot please.

Here is an example of two of them located within the text.

Here is a full screenshot

They are not cursors, but bookmarks.

THanks for the help :smiley:

Attach the corresponding document so that we can confirm @PKG’s hypothesis.

PS: when posting screenshots, avoid dark mode. Images are shrunk and thin white lines are harder to see than thin black lines on white background. Also enable View>Formatting Marks to provide more technical details (e.g. is the large spacing above the text the result of paragraph configuration or a sequence of empty paragraphs?).
