a gamma ray burst lasting about 25 s has been detected by IBAS in the  IBIS/ISGRI data at 05:28:37  UT of 2 May 2024.

The refined coordinates (J2000) are:
R.A.=  113.629 deg
DEC.=  +16.7244 deg
with an uncertainty of  2   arcmin (90% c.l.).

The burst had a fluence   of about 4e-7 erg/cmq in the 20-200 keV range

A plot of the light curve will  be posted at
