The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
"At 13:19:28.70 UT on 07 June 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 260607B (trigger 802531173/260607555).
This trigger was initially classified as Distant Particles by the flight software,
but is in fact a GRB.
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 55.11, Dec = 26.90 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 +03h 40m, +26d 54'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 1.00 degree.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 68 degrees.
