Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Can you please share your sitemap URL with us so that we can check the issue further for you?
Meanwhile, please follow the steps below and see if that works for you:
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:
https://i.rankmath.com/pipRDp2. 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:

We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

We checked your cache settings and you haven’t excluded the sitemap yet so we went ahead and did that.
We also included a filter code to make sure Rank Math’s sitemap is not cached in the directory.
The sitemap should now load without any issues from your end:

Hi Team,

Please ensure that your sitemap is present at the specified address and is not blocked to Google. See our help center for more debugging help.

Hello,
The
Couldn't fetchissue is on Google’s end. I’ve double-checked your sitemap, and it appears to be working fine with no reported issues.There was a similar issue discussed previously on the Google Webmaster forum, which you can find here. We’ve also noticed multiple user reports of similar issues occurring again.
We recommend giving it a bit more time and reporting the issue on the Webmaster forum so that Google is aware (or reminded) of it.
Please feel free to reach out if you need assistance with anything else.
