I need to get this:

I've got this so far:
https://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/trackimp/N344006.1960500FACEBOOKAD/B9589414.130145906;dc_trk_aid=303019819;dc_trk_cid=69763238;ord=[timestamp];dc_lat=;dc_rdid=;tag_for_child_directed_treatment=?\"
BORDER=\"0\" HEIGHT=\"1\" WIDTH=\"1\" ALT=\"Advertisement
With this is the code I've used:
carreras_normal$Impression.Tag..image. <-
gsub("<img.+?src=[\"'](.*?)[\"'].*?>","\\1",carreras_normal$Impression.Tag..image.,
ignore.case = T)
*But I still need to use get rid of this part:*

Thank you for your help.
You're querying an xml string, so use xpath, e.g., via the XML library
> as.character(xmlParse(y)[["//IMG/@SRC"]])

"https://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/trackimp/N344006.1960500FACEBOOKAD/B9589414.130145906;dc_trk_aid=303019819;dc_trk_cid=69763238;ord=[timestamp];dc_lat=;dc_rdid=;tag_for_child_directed_treatment=?"
`xmlParse()` translates the character string into an XML document. `[[`
subsets the document to extract a single element. "//IMG/@SRC" follows
the xpath specification (this section
https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-31/#abbrev of the specification provides a
quick guide) to find, starting from the 'root' of the document, a node,
at any depth, labeled IMG containing an attribute labeled SRC.
A variation, if there were several IMG tags to be extracted, would be
xpathSApply(xmlParse(y), "//IMG/@SRC", as.character)
