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

"At 03:37:41.37 UT on 19 May 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 260519B (trigger 800854666/260519151).

The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 85.76, Dec = -73.67 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 -4h 54m, +17d 0'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 17.01 degrees.

The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 25 degrees.
