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

"At 05:49:57.62 UT on 04 January 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 260104B (trigger 789198602/260104243).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 87.42, Dec = -29.65 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 05h 49m, -29d 39'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 10.28 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 42 degrees.
