The short, soft burst from SGR 1935+2154
(Fermi GBM trigger 647641569)
triggered Konus-Wind on 2021 July 10 at
T0=73568.532 s UT (20:26:08.532).

The burst light curve shows a single pulse
started at ~T0-150 ms with a total duration of ~200 ms.
The emission is seen up to 200 keV.

The Konus-Wind light curve of this burst is available at
http://www.ioffe.ru/LEA/SGRs/210710_T73568/

As observed by Konus-Wind, the burst
had a fluence of 1.49(-0.17,+0.17)x10^-6 erg/cm2,
and a 2-ms peak flux, measured from T0-0.044 s,
of 1.33(-0.33,+0.33)x10^-5 erg/cm2/s
(both in the 20 - 500 keV energy range).

The time-averaged spectrum of the burst
(measured from T0 to T0+0.064 s)
is best fit in the 20 - 200 keV range
by a power law with exponential cutoff model:
dN/dE ~ (E^alpha)*exp(-E*(2+alpha)/Ep)
with  alpha = -0.66(-1.32,+1.91)
and Ep = 25(-22,+9) keV (chi2 = 6/9 dof).

All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
All the quoted values are preliminary.
