The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
"At 06:00:01.80 UT on 25 October 2026, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM)
triggered and located GRB 261025A (trigger 814600806/261025250).
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 = 297.81, Dec = 67.39 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 19h 51m, +67d 23'),
with a statistical uncertainty of 5.35 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 36 degrees.
