Three sources in the Large Magellanic Cloud and one in the Small Cloud have been discovered by Uhurit. These sources each emit about 1036 ergs i in the 2-7-keV band, and they account for more than 90 percent of the total emission from the Clouds. The source in the Small Cloud shows time variability on time scales of hours.
