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

"At 03:28:07.47 UT on 11 May 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 230511C (trigger 705468492/230511145).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 262.8, Dec = -13.6 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 17h 31m, -13d 34'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 9.2 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 98 degrees.
