Report on behalf of the SVOM team:
SVOM/GRM detected the burst GRB 251011B at 2025-10-11T07:08:22.000 UTC (T0), which is also detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN #42196) and Swift/BAT (A. D'Ai et al., GCN #42197).
With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, we conducted the standard analysis pipeline of GRB 251011B. The GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of a single pulse with a T90 of 48 +9/-10 s in the 15-5000 keV band.

In addition, the position of this burst, as determined by Fermi/GBM (RA= 5.3, DEC= -56.1, GCN#42196), is located at about 85.17 degrees from the SVOM optical axis, which is outside the ECLAIRs field of view.
With this localization, the time-averaged spectrum from T0-15 to T0+30 s is best fitted by a power law function. The power law index is 2.22 +0.23/-0.19. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (3.56 +0.56/-0.82)E-06 erg/cm^2.
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.
