Hello,
Your sitemap is returning a critical error.
You must have received an email from WordPress with the details about the error. Please share it with us here so we can check.
If you haven’t received the email with the error code, you can follow this guide to enable debugging in WordPress
https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/ or you can get in touch with your web host, and they will help you locate the log file.
Having an error log will help us determine what is causing the critical error.
Regarding the Instant Indexing module, assuming you are using the latest version of all the plugins and the themes (please update if not yet), this can be caused by a conflicting plugin/theme.
To determine that, please follow this troubleshooting guide:

Here is a video you can follow as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcIWRhcUP2c
Only the site admin would know and your users won’t be affected by this troubleshooting.
Looking forward to helping you.
