The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
"At 10:19:23.76 UT on 23 February 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 250223B (trigger 761998768/250223430). This trigger
was initially classified as Unreliable Location by the flight software, but is in fact a GRB.
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 3.54, Dec = +43.49(J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 00h 14m, +43d 29'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 13 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 56 degrees.
