MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Applied Physics Institute, Irkutsk State University) was pointed to the Swift GRB231111.60 (trigger No 1195887,19h 20m 56.16s , +52d 26m 49.2s, R=0.05) errorbox  17 sec after notice time and 37 sec after trigger time at 2023-11-11 14:17:57 UT, with upper limit up to  19.4 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 45 deg. The sun  altitude  is -44.8 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 17 deg., longitude l = 84 deg.
