I suppose that the extension that concern this special page is MediaWiki-extensions-GoogleNewsSitemap (rEGNS81acbc1a05db6357b7147e035a069a637ddf72d1)
Only 4 wikinews have content in Special:NewsFeed. The 29 others are empty. (script: P5925)

Its probably configured wrong.
The newsfeed assumes all published articles are in a specific category. It won't work well for wikis that don't follow that.
If any of the wikinews languages need to adjust what category the extension should look for, please post and we can fix the config of the extension.
Thanks for helping! For Dutch Wikinews: Categorie:Gepubliceerd, this is the general category with all published articles. Probably the same for the others.
So here is a raw list from wikidata item

Change 399433 had a related patch set uploaded (by Brian Wolff; owner: Brian Wolff):
[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Fill in $wgGNSMFallbackCategory based on wikidata
Note, that we are currently in a deployment freeze, so this cannot be deployed until Jan 2 at the very earliest.
If anyone wants to test, is what this change does is change the default for the categories parameter.
So after that change, on nlwikinews the default for categories will be "Gepubliceerd" instead of "Published", so after the change, https://nl.wikinews.org/wiki/Speciaal:Nieuwsfeed?feed=atom will behave like how https://nl.wikinews.org/wiki/Speciaal:Nieuwsfeed?categories=Gepubliceerd&feed=atom behaves currently.
Additionally, once this is deployed, if people really like the Special:Newsfeed rss feeds and want that to be default feed for the site that is shown to browsers via the <link> tag (Like it is on english wikinews and farsi wikinews) we can do that too, but please file a separate bug for that.

So this was a lie. This is live now.
Some wikis are still using interwikis links, not wikidata, so they was not in the previous list :( For example https://hu.wikinews.org/wiki/Kateg%C3%B3ria:Publik%C3%A1lt
Oh, it appears that these wikis are read-only because they're closed. So there's no problem.
