Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Can you please follow these steps?
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:

2. Exclude the Sitemap files of the Rank Math plugin in your caching plugin. The cache could be via a plugin or from the server. For plugins or Cloudflare, please follow this article:
https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/
That should fix the issue. Please let me know if that does not. We are here to assist.
Tried both methods. Nothing seems to work!
Hello,
Could you please check if the Ping Search Engines option is enabled or not by heading over to WP Dashboard > Rank Math > Sitemap settings
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
Hello,
Could you please ping Google to re-crawl your sitemap by using this link?
This will tell Google to add the sitemap to the list it needs to crawl. Then wait a couple of weeks and see if Google is able to correctly fetch all the sitemaps on your website.
You can also monitor the last time Google crawled your sitemap on your Google Search Console and see if it updates when it crawls the file.
I hope that helps.
Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime if you need further assistance with anything else.
