Recent X-ray observations of the X-ray binary Cir X-1 have revealed a brightening of the X-ray source (ATEL #2608) and the onset of type I X-ray bursts (ATEL #2643, ATEL #2651, ATEL #2653) confirming the neutron star nature of the source. Cir X-1 is a powerful jet source which in recent years has however faded to ~mJy levels in its core emission at GHz frequencies (compared to >Jy flux densities in the 1970s and 1980s).
