Source is 2MASS J17255005-2510420 (SIMBAD classification: Long-Period Variable Candidate, LP?), a red giant with 2MASS K=7.735, J=9.415, H=8.214. Currently at i~12.9 apparent magnitude — approximately 1.1 mag brighter than Gaia DR3 quiescent G=14.08. Long-baseline ALeRCE forced photometry shows repeated outbursts since MJD 58,000 (2018). Galactic latitude 5.73 degrees. No prior TNS report within 30 arcseconds. Spectroscopic classification requested to determine nature of outburst. | 2026TNSTR2493....1M | N |
