As we reported in LVC GCN 21546 MASTER-OAFA have imaged the BAYESTAR
localization
map of LIGO/Virgo G298048 (GCN 21513).
MASTER-SAAO have new images of NGC 4993 galaxy starting 2017-08-18
17:06:55 UT in B, R and unfiletred with magnitude limit 19.8. We see
object in B and unfiltered images detected by Coulter et al. (LVC GCN 21529),
Allam et al. (LVC GCN 21530), Yang et al. (LVC GCN 21531),
Melandri et al. (LVC GCN 21532), Lipunov et al., (LVC GCN 21546).
The OT is not essentially changed during last ~24 hours.
