The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB

At 05:30:39 UT on 25 Apr 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230425A (trigger 704093444 / 230425230).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 150.7 Dec = -33.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 10h 02m, 33d 54'), with a statistical uncertainty of 11.5 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 74 degrees.
