We report on an observation performed with the Swift/XRT of the neutron-star X-ray transient Aql X-1 which was recently found to start a new outburst as inferred from an increase in source luminosity in the R and J band data (ATEL #869, #870). The Swift/XRT observation was performed between 31 July 2006 21:47 and 22:05 UT with a duration of 996 seconds. The XRT was in the windowed timing mode.
