  "body": "The IceCube Collaboration (http://icecube.wisc.edu/) reports:\n\nIceCube has performed a search [1] for additional track-like muon neutrino events arriving from the direction of IceCube-251210A (https://gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/43064) in a time range of 1000 seconds centered on the alert event time (2025-12-10 10:57:54.429 UTC to 2025-12-10 11:14:34.429 UTC) during which IceCube was collecting good quality data. Excluding the event that prompted the alert, zero track-like events are found within the 90% containment region of IceCube-251210A. We report a p-value of 1.00 in this time window.  IceCube’s sensitivity to neutrino point sources with an E^-2.5 spectrum, expressed as E^2 dN/dE evaluated at 1 TeV, is 1.4e-01 GeV cm^-2 within the 90% spatial containment region of IceCube-251210A in a 1000 second time window. 90% of events IceCube would detect from a source at this declination with an E^-2.5 spectrum have energies in the approximate energy range between 2e+02 GeV and 9e+04 GeV.\n\nA subsequent search was performed including 2 days of data centered on the alert event time (2025-12-09 11:06:14.429 UTC to 2025-12-11 11:06:14.429 UTC). In this case, we report a p-value of 1.00, consistent with no significant excess of track events. IceCube’s sensitivity to neutrino point sources with an E^-2.5 spectrum, expressed as E^2 dN/dE evaluated at 1 TeV, is 1.7e-01 GeV cm^-2 within the 90% spatial containment region of IceCube-251210A in a 2 day time window.\n\nThe IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica. The IceCube realtime alert point of contact can be reached at roc@icecube.wisc.edu.\n\n[1] IceCube Collaboration, R. Abbasi  et al., ApJ 910 4 (2021)\n\n\n",
