report:

The long-duration GRB 260605A
(Insight-HXMT/HE detection: Zao et al., GCN 44849Loading...
 
 )
was detected by Insight (HXMT/HE), SVOM (GRM), Konus-Wind,
and Mars-Odyssey (HEND) at about 3868 s UT (01:04:28).

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box
whose coordinates are:
 ------------------------------
  RA(2000), deg  Dec(2000), deg
 ------------------------------
 Corners:
  110.4929       +37.9757
  110.4379       +38.1277
  108.8194       +18.8592
  108.8935       +19.0360
 ------------------------------
The error box area is 3003 sq. arcmin, and its maximum
dimension is 20.3 deg (the minimum one is 2.6 arcmin).
The Sun distance was ~27 deg.

This localization may be improved.
