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

At 06:25:23 UT on 25 Feb 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 250225A (trigger 762157528.045892 / 250225268).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 60.0, Dec = -40.5 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 04h 00m, -40d 30'), with a statistical uncertainty of 12.1 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 72.0 degrees.
