The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
"At 11:36:52.81 UT on 05 August 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 260805B (trigger 807622617/260805484).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data,
is RA = 259.42, Dec = 64.59 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 17h 17m, +64d 35'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 2.15 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 31 degrees.
