We report on the discovery with INTEGRAL of a probable new hard X-ray source located 9.4 arcmin off IGR J17091-3624. This source, IGR J1709.8-3628, was detected with IBIS/ISGRI on March 24.33-25.58, 2005 (UT) during deep Open Program observations of the Galactic center region. The S/N ratio at the mosaic image was 22.3 in the 18-45 keV band and 14.5 in the 45-80 keV band, the corresponding average fluxes were 28.2+/-1.4 and 38.7+/-2.8 mCrab.
