We observed the field of Fermi LAt localization of GRB 240118A (Bissaldi, GCN 35560) and detected also Fermi GBM (Fermi GBM team, GCN 35558; Hamburg, GCN 35563), NuSTAR (Grefenstette, GCN 35564), Swift BAT (DeLaunay, GCN 35568), and Konus-Wind (Frederiks, GCN 35567) with AS-32 telescope of Abastumani observatory (AbAO) in R-filter starting on 2024-01-18 (UT) 16:47:55. No optical candidate is detected in the LAT localization area (Bissaldi, GCN 35560). Preliminary photometry of the filed is following
