V. Sharma (NASA GSFC/UMBC) reports on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team:
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger 718822496/231012705, which occurred at 16:54:51 UT on 12 October 2023, was tentatively classified as GRB 231012B (GCN 34815). However, we are uncertain about its classification as a GRB and can likely be due to distant particles.

V. Sharma (NASA GSFC/UMBC) reports on behalf of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Team:
"The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger 718822496.021004 / 231012705, which occurred at 16:54:51 UT on 12 Oct 2023, is misnamed as GRB 231012A (GCN 34814). It is in fact the second GRB (refer GCN 34813 for the first GRB 231012A) trigger on the same date and should be a new GRB 231012B. We apologize for any confusion caused."
