This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is experiencing an issue where the
'News' page redirects to the English version when switching languages, despite
other pages working correctly with WPML.
Solution:

1. Ensure the 'Simple Main Menu' is translated into all required languages via WP-Admin -> Appearances -> Menus.
2. Use the WPML -> WP Menu Sync tool to synchronize the menu for the 'Simple Main Menu'. Only select the menu items for this section and apply changes.
3. If the 'News' menu item label needs to be different in other languages, use WPML -> String Translation to translate the 'News' string and then sync the menu again.
4. Check the menu in Elementor and ensure the correct menu is set based on the language.

If these steps do not resolve the issue or if the solution seems outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/,
verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Hi,

On my end I see that the links are set correctly, the only thing that might be needed is to change the label of the menu item "News" for each language. You can change that by editing the "Simple Main Menu" in each language (WP-Admin -> Appearances -> Menus) and manually changing the label of the menu item, or you can translate the label string (WP-Admin -> WPML -> String translation).

Let me know if the menu "News" links properly on your end as well.

Regards,
Marsel
