S. Belkin (IKI), A. Pozanenko (IKI),  E. Klunko (ISTP), V. Kim (FAI, 
Pulkovo Observatory), Y. Aimuratov (FAI), M. Krugov (FAI) report on 
behalf of GRB IKI FuN:

We observed  GRB 210104A (Fermi GBM team, GCN 29232; Troja et al., GCN 
29233; Frederiks et al., GCN  29258; Cherry et al., GCN 29268) with 
AZT-33IK telescope of Sayan observatory (Mondy).   We detect the optical 
afterglow (Troja et al., GCN 29233; Xin et al., GCN 29235; Hu et al., 
GCN 29236; Hosokawa et al., GCN  29237; Kim et al., GCN 29238, 29265; 
Lipunov et al., GCN 29239; Horiuchi et al., GCN 29241; Breeveld et al., 
GCN 29247; Zhu et al., GCN 29252; Paek  et al., GCN 29254; Kumar et al., 
GCN 29257; Smartt et al., GCN 29262; Romanov, GCN 29269; Anandagoda et 
al., GCN 29273; Gokuldass, GCN 29274; Mao et al.,  GCN 29275; Moskvitin 
et al., GCN 29277).
