Github Wiki: <img> tag not working with realtive path

I would like to use the HTML img tag in a Github Wiki page. It works with absolute path like

<img align="left" src="https://github.com/..../wiki/images/image.png" width="50%">

But doesn't work if I write

<img align="left" src="images/image.png" width="50%">

The image is in the "images" folder in the Wiki repository and the following syntax works.

[[images/image.png]]

I want to use the <img> tag in order to have the possibility to use attributes like align="left" or width="50%".

And I would like to use realtive path in order to work offline and to sync the repo only at the end of the editing.

Note that I'm talking about the wiki page not a normal readme. I know that in a readme the img tag works also with realtive paths.

GitHub wikis turns relative links to absolute links only when using the [[…]] syntax. You will therefore need to use absolute links only, host the images elsewhere… or ask GitHub to fix it.
