Maury (Space, San Pedro de Atacama), on behalf of a larger collaboration, report:\n\nFollowing the detection of trigger 01709178244 by EP-WXT (Hu et al. GCN 40649), both the 0.6m robotic telescopes BOOTES-5/JGU robotic telescope at San Pedro Martir Observatory (Mexico) and BOOTES-7 at San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) responded to the alert on June 8, 5:00 UT (i.e. 1 min after notification and 6.5 min after the detection). Within the reported EP-FXT error circle we find the star Gaia DR3 6730332160799599744 decreasing 1.2 mag in brightness (g filter) and 0.8 mag (r filter) during a 120 min time interval, confirming the EP X-ray trigger due to a stellar flare. \n\nWe thank the staff at San Pedro de Atacama Celestial Observations and San Pedro Martir Observatory for their excellent support.",
