We observed the field of Fermi GRB 240825A (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 37273;
Gupta et al., GCN 37274; Di Lalla et al., GCN 37288; Kuin et al., GCN
37296; Joshi et al., GCN 37298; Sharma and Meegan, GCN 37301; Frederiks et
al., GCN 37302; Laskar et al., GCN 37314) using the Zeiss-1000 telescope at
Tien Shan Astronomical Observatory, starting on 2024-08-26 at 15:04:36 UT
in the R filter. We did not detect the optical afterglow (Gupta et al., GCN

redshift of z = 0.659 (Martin-Carrillo et al., GCN 37293; Melandri et al.,
GCN 37310).
Preliminary photometry is as follows:
