foreach continue is not working when inside RunWithElevatedPrivileges - powershell

Question

Below code keep executing when error arises,
foreach($url in Get-Content $urlsDir)
{
try
{
// do something
// declare X
}
catch
{
// write host or soemthing with exception
continue
}
finally
{
// dispose X
}
}
but when I put this code in RunWithElevatedPrivileges, it completely stops on first error and won't continue execution,
[Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity]::RunWithElevatedPrivileges({
# Iterate through all webs in a text file
foreach($url in Get-Content $urlsDir)
{
try
{
// do something
// declare X
}
catch
{
// write host or soemthing with exception
continue
}
finally
{
// dispose X
}
}
});

It could be related to whether or not you've specified an ErrorAction, I'm not sure how this relates to try catch though. I have done something similar where my foreach would not stop unless explicitly stated.
Basically you need to specify what should happen if an error occurs on each call, as so
Call-Something $SomeParam -ErrorAction Stop
and unless you specify it as above for each call or in the start of your script as below errors can be silently ignored.
// at the start of your script
$ErrorActionPreference = "Stop"
For more information you can read about ErrorAction in powershell here for instance
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/kebab/2013/06/09/an-introduction-to-error-handling-in-powershell/
And according to msdn these are the valid values:
Stop: Displays the debug message and stops executing. Writes an error to the console.
Inquire: Displays the debug message and asks you whether you want to continue. Note that adding the Debug common parameter to a command--when the command is configured to generate a debugging message--changes the value of the $DebugPreference variable to Inquire.
Continue: Displays the debug message and continues with execution.
SilentlyContinue: No effect. The debug message is not (Default) displayed and execution continues without interruption.
