Is news subject to copyright?

If the news is not copied word for word, but written in your own words, revised and supplemented, can the original source of the news speak of a violation of copyright law? Is it also legal to require the original source to refer to it or link to it?

No. Civil Code Article
1259 documents of international organizations, as well as their official translations; 2) state symbols and signs (flags, emblems, orders, banknotes, etc.), as well as symbols and signs of municipalities; 3) works of folk art (folklore) that do not have specific authors;
4) messages about events and facts that are of an exclusively informational nature (news reports of the day, TV programs, vehicle schedules, etc.).

I think not, but it's best to provide a link to the source.
