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

At 21:24:18 UT on 13 May 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 260513A (trigger 800400263.713514 / 260513892).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 320.8, Dec = -36.4 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 21h 23m, -36d 23'), with a statistical uncertainty of 2.3 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 65.0 degrees.
