Report on behalf of the SVOM team:
SVOM/GRM was triggered in-flight by GRB 250308A (SVOM trigger reference: sb25030804) at 2025-03-08T18:06:30.9 (T0), which is also detected by CALTE/GBM (TRIGGER ID: 1425492335) and Konus-Wind.
With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, the GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of multi-pulses with a T90 of 1.9 +0.9/-0.8 s in the 15-5000 keV band.

The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS.
