I went after Mars early in my session as I knew the power was going to be switched off at 04.00UT due to our notorious loadshedding we have here. 
Syrtis Major is at lower right, Syrtis Minor is central and Hellas at upper right. Hesperia and Tritenis S angle up to the upper left.
I was informed that there may be dust activity over Jezero crater (Perseverance Rover).
Unfortunately the northern limb is also affected by the edge artefact, which doesn’t help the assessment of that area.
However, it is my opinion that the R and IR may indicate dust activity on the E/NE edge of Syrtis Major,
but I am also aware of the “regular” light feature that is sometimes seen on the eastern edge of SM.
Anyway, it will be interesting to see if there are any developments around this, and it’s worth trying to monitor.
