The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
"At 12:00:02.52 UT on 28 August 2025, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 250828A (trigger 778075207/250828500).
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 = 220.44, Dec = -69.39 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 14h 41m, -69d 23m'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 3.08 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 14 degrees.
