[SOLVED] Clipping not working gdal python in a for loop

I have a block of code that work individually works but when I put it in my main block of code doesn't work anymore and i can't figure out why.

My goal is to clip a shapefile with another shapefile using gdal. The base shapefile looks like this : and the shapefile i want to clip it with looks like this .I

In the end I want a shapefile that looks like this :

I have an individual block of code that works :

import geopandas as gpd
from osgeo import ogr


# Base shapefile (already in EPSG:4326)
base_path = "C:/Users/elwan/OneDrive/Bureau/VHI/commune/shp/VHI_1984_08_4326.shp"
base_gdf = gpd.read_file(base_path)

# Clip shapefile (needs reprojection)
clip_path = "C:/Users/elwan/OneDrive/Bureau/VHI/data/mdl4326.shp"
clip_gdf = gpd.read_file(clip_path)


# Clip base_gdf using clip_gdf geometry
clipped_gdf = gpd.clip(base_gdf, clip_gdf.geometry)

# Define output filename
output_path = "C:/Users/elwan/OneDrive/Bureau/VHI/clipped.shp"

# Save clipped data to a new shapefile
clipped_gdf.to_file(output_path, driver="ESRI Shapefile")

print("Clipped shapefile saved to:", output_path)

But when I but it in my main block of code in a for loop it doesn't work anymore and generates shapefiles that don't have anything in them.
