- Author contribution statement
- I was in charge of the medium-latency sky-localization of the reported gravitational wave signal, which confirmed the position to be fully consistent with the electromagnetic counterpart. This corresponds to Section 2.1 (Gravitational-wave Observation) of the paper. In particular the last two paragraph from this section use the results from the working group that I chaired, incorporated in consultation with myself, and used software which I developed.
