Azure DevOps on premises - Work Item Search issues with accute accent words

Hello,

We are running Scrum on azure devops 2020 and we have an issue regarding search results of work items.
A word containing a letter with acute accent is not considered the same as the same word without the acute accent:
e.g. "βαση" / "βάση"

Searching for "βάση" will not include the results that contain the word "βαση".
Is it related to the collation of the DB ? The default collation (based on server regional settings was Greek_CI_AS )
I guess this is related to the installed search module. I cannot find where to configure the module specifically for this kind of issue.
Any ideas how to deal with it?
