Fermi LAT detection of renewed GeV gamma-ray activity associated with the flat-spectrum radio source PKS 2247-131

The Large Area Telescope (LAT), on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, has observed a renewed strong gamma-ray activity from a source positionally consistent with the flat-spectrum radio source PKS 2247-131 with coordinates RA=342.4983854 deg, Dec=-12.8546736 deg (J2000; Beasley et al. 2002, ApJS, 141, 13). Fermi-LAT already reported a flare on ATel #9285 but this source is not in any published LAT catalog and was not detected by AGILE or EGRET.
