MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) started inspect of the MAXI GRB190708.83 (trigger No 6726888062, 21h 47m 25.42s , + 7d 38m 12.84s, R=1) errorbox  27 sec after notice time and 3305 sec after trigger time at 2019-07-08 20:45:26 UT, with upper limit up to  16.1 mag. The observations began at zenit distance = 77 deg. The sun  altitude  is -62.1 deg. 

MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) started inspect of the MAXI GRB190708.83 errorbox  563 sec after notice time and 3841 sec after trigger time at 2019-07-08 20:54:22 UT, with upper limit up to  17.2 mag. The observations began at zenit distance = 52 deg. The sun  altitude  is -24.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -60 deg., longitude l = 98 deg.
