larger GRB follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of the INTEGRAL GRB 160629A (Gotz et al., GCN 
19621) with  AZT-33IK telescope of Sayan observatory (Mondy) starting on 
July, 01 (UT) 18:39:36. We obtained several images in R-filter. Within 
XRT error circle (D'Ai et al., GCN 19641) we  detected optical afterglow 
(Klotz et al., GCN 19622; Sokolov et al., GCN  19623). Preliminary 
photometry  of the field  is following
