Blank pages on Safari for MacBook

On my MacBook , after a forced restart, there are instances where my tabs suddenly turn into a completely blank page. Nothing I type into the search bar above works and the show previously page no longer works while a grey safari logo appears on the tab. It's like the webpage is completely dead. Refreshing the page doesn't work either and if I duplicate the tab, it says it is untitled. What is going on?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.7

If a simple reboot of your Mac doesn’t fix things, see if the problem still happens in Safe mode.

How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support 


Safe mode will often correct weird software behavior by forcing the OS to do disk repair, clear caches and other housekeeping and disables acceleration and third-party mods. When you're in safe boot, the machine won’t be at its best performance, especially with graphics, but that's expected.


Does the same thing happen while in Safe mode?


Exit safe mode by restarting your Mac normally and evaluate the issue again.
