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 IceCube Alert 240105.52 (trigger No 46175426,04h 51m 34.32s , +11d 19m 33.6s, R=0.51) errorbox  19544 sec after notice time and 19590 sec after trigger time at 2024-01-05 17:54:12 UT, with upper limit up to  19.2 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 53 deg. The sun  altitude  is -60.5 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -20 deg., longitude l = 188 deg.
