Lee (UNAM), Océlotl López (UNAM), Margarita Pereyra (UNAM) and Eleonora Troja (U Roma) report:

We observed the field of GRB 250711A detected by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN Circ. 41064) and SVOM/GRM (SVOM/GRM Team GCN Circ. 41072) with the DDOTI/OAN wide-field imager at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro Mártir (http://ddoti.astroscu.unam.mx) on the night of 2025-07-12 UTC. 

DDOTI observed the BALROG error region (Pries et al., GCN Circ. 41065) from 04:12 UTC to 11:28 UTC (from T+ 13.5 h to T+ 20.8 h after the trigger) and obtained a total exposure of 1.7 hours, alternating with other scientific programs.

Comparing our observations to the USNO-B1 and Pan-STARRS PS1 DR2 catalogues, we
detect no uncatalogued fading sources within the observed field down to a 10-sigma limiting AB magnitude of: 

w > 20.1

This value is not corrected for the Galactic extinction.
