.htaccess rewrite to subdomain and redirect

CODE --> apache

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^news/index([0-9-]+)\.html$ index.php?page=pressrelease_homepage&pn=$1
RewriteRule ^news/$ index.php?page=pressrelease_homepage
RewriteRule ^press/([a-zA-Z0-9-]+)-([0-9-]+)\.html$ index.php?page=pressrelease_page&id=$2

I want to rewrite everything www.site.com/news to press.site.com and everything /press/ to press.site.com. After I do this, I want to redirect all old links to the new subdomain links. I tried several methods but I wasn't very successful.

Any help will be greatful!

For folder to subdomain mod_alias rule is the way to go.

CODE

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/news/(.*)$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/press/(.*)$
RewriteRule .* http://press.domain.tld/%1 [R]

Example needed of the request URIs and the URI they are to go to
