MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the EP250223a ( EP Team et al., GCN 39429) errorbox  6703 sec after notice time and 11479 sec after trigger time at 2025-02-23 18:15:54 UT, with upper limit up to  18.4 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 13 deg. The sun  altitude  is -12.2 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -13 deg., longitude l = 232 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
