We report a detection of increased activity of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar Swift J1756.9-2508 observed with the RXTE-PCA monitoring on July 8, 9hr UTC. Increased flux is detected simultaneously on the Swift-BAT camera. RXTE-PCA follow up observations starting on July 13, 23hr UTC, detected the source in the 2-16 keV band at a flux level of approximately 19 mCrab, rising to 22 mCrab on July 14, 2hr UTC.
