report:
The short-duration GRB 231224A
(Fermi-GBM detection: The Fermi GBM team, GCN 35426)
was detected by Fermi (GBM trigger 725143760) and
INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS) at about 74956 s UT (20:49:16).
We have triangulated it to a GBM-SPI-ACS annulus centered at
RA(2000)=230.929 deg (15h 23m 43s) Dec(2000)=-83.517 deg (-83d 30' 60"),
whose radius is 32.644 +/- 5.664 deg (3 sigma).
The annulus combined with the Fermi-GBM final position (GCN 35426;
glg_healpix_all_bn231224868_v00) gives ~792 sq. deg (3 sigma) localization region.

The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely SHORT GRB
At 20:49:15 UT on 24 Dec 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 231224A (trigger 725143760.994196 / 231224868).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 102.3, Dec = -71.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 06h 49m, -71d 12'), with a statistical uncertainty of 11.9 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 24.0 degrees.
