Yu. Krugly (Institute of Astronomy of Kharkiv National University), 
R.Inasaridze, O. Kvaratskhelia(Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory), 
I. Molotov (KIAM), A. Pozanenko (IKI)  report on behalf of  larger GRB 
follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of the Swift Swift GRB 121128A (Oates et al., GCN 
14007)with AC-32 (0.7m Maksutov) telescope of Abastumani Observatory, 
starting on Nov. 28 (UT) 15:28. We took several unfiltered images of 300 
s exposure. We detected the afterglow (Oates et al., GCN 14007; Japelj 
et al., GCN 14008) in stacked images. The photometry of a the stacked 
image is based on USNO-B1.0 stars (R2):
