Report on behalf of the SVOM team:
SVOM/GRM was triggered in-flight by a burst GRB 250930A (SVOM trigger reference: sb25093008) at 2025-09-30T21:00:23.000 UTC (T0), which is also detected by Fermi/GBM (TrigNum#780960200).
With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, the GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of multi-pulses with a T90 of 49 +8/-6 s in the 15-5000 keV band.

In addition, the position of this burst, as determined by Fermi/GBM (RA= 341.57, DEC= -47.95, TrigNum#780958803), is located at about 58 degrees from the SVOM optical axis, which is outside the ECLAIRs field of view, but this burst is still marginally detected by ECLAIRs above 50 keV.
With this localization, the time-averaged spectrum from T0-37 to T0+24 s is best fitted by a power law function with an exponential high-energy cutoff. The power law index is -1.13 +/-0.14 and the cutoff energy, parameterized as Epeak, is 107 +17/-12 keV. The event fluence (10-1000 keV) in this time interval is (8.58 +0.69/-0.57)E-06 erg/cm^2.

The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA, China), National Center for Space Studies (CNES, France) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, China), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS.
