Please amend the title as M26 and M28 have been launched on Dec 26.
Launch time should be approx. 00:58 UTC.

The past were M25/M26, the exact launch time can be calculate after detail NOTAMs.

The December launch was M26/M28 according to https://www.csno-tarc.cn/en/system/constellation .
As of time, we'll see in two weeks.

JSR lists the 26 December 2023 satellites as Beidou DW 57 (Beidou-3 M25?) and Beidou DW 58 (Beidou-3 M26?). The Chinese "Test and Assessment Research Center of China Satellite Navigation Office" web site looks pretty official, so I think M26 and M28 are correct for the last launch. This launch might be M25 and M27.
