  For a ten of 125 short GRBs observed by Konus-Wind and the Konus-A the
existance of statistically significant flux of hard photons accompanying
initial event for a time of tens to hundred seconds after the trigger was
revealed. Temporal, spectral, and energetic characteristics of these events are
presented. The statistical analysis of the whole burst sample reveals that the
afterglow is a more common feature of short GRBs.
