"But there is no the third repetition after 5.Ke8 because of right to castle
is lost. Am I mistaken about such a rule in FIDE code: two positions are
equal if they have the same dynamic possibilities (to castle, en passant
etc.)"

You are correct, that does not qualify as a 3-time repetition under the laws
of chess because, as you point out, the right to castle has changed. This
has been clarified and confirmed many times.
