collaboration:

We observed the field of the Fermi GRB 160925A (trigger #496473540) with 
  AZT-33IK telescope of Sayan observatory (Mondy) starting on Sep., 26 
(UT) 14:38:09. We obtained several images in R-filter. We  clearly 
detected optical transient (Lipunov et al., GCN 19938Not found
 
 
; Guidorzi et al., 
GCN  19939Not found
 
 
). Preliminary photometry  of the transient is following
