    Does your Search Console / Webmaster Tools account report any errors?

    Yes, I got the following error “Your Sitemap is on a site that is not in the Google News database”, this is happening since the sitemap was submitted, but this isn’t affecting the correct inclusion of news in GN. I have my site approved and submitting news with no problem for many time. I ask in the GN forum about it and seems like many publishers have the same alert in Search Console, sounds like a problem on Google’s side.

    do you have any other way to alert GN about this problem?

    No, I’m waiting for response in the GM forum.

    Hope we can finally find a solution for this issue.

    Update on this issue: I contact the Google News team by email and they say that the problem is on Google’s side. The sitemap is OK, I have to wait to get this fixed.
    I will update this thread when I get news about this issue from Google.

    Here the message:
