catchError operator showing problem in angular interceptor

I am developing an interceptor for handling http error in angular 10 project. Here is the code:

import { HttpEvent, HttpHandler, HttpInterceptor, HttpRequest, HttpResponse } from '@angular/common/http';
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Observable, of } from 'rxjs';
import { catchError, map } from 'rxjs/operators';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class HttpErrorHandlerServiceService implements HttpInterceptor {

  constructor() { }

  intercept(req: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler): Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {
    return next.handle(req)
    .pipe(
      map(resp => { 

       }),
      catchError(err => { 

       })
    );
      
  }
}

In catchError operator the below error is showing.

Argument of type '(err: any) => void' is not assignable to parameter of type '(err: any, caught: Observable<void | HttpSentEvent | HttpHeaderResponse | HttpProgressEvent | HttpResponse | HttpUserEvent>) => ObservableInput<...>'. Type 'void' is not assignable to type 'ObservableInput'.

You can gracefully handle the error by return an Observable message like :

import { of } from 'rxjs';

catchError(err => of('Error happened'))

or forward it like :

catchError(err => throwError(err))

In either way you have to return an Observable. You have good exemples here

RxJS catchError operator must return an observable. If you have nothing to return you could forward the supplied error using RxJS throwError function.

import { throwError } from 'rxjs';

return next.handle(req).pipe(
  map(resp => { }),
  catchError(err => { 
    // handle error
    return throwError(err);      // forward the supplied error
  })
);
