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 Swift GRB250807.65 (trigger No 1340561,01h 02m 20.40s , -59d 05m 38.4s, R=0.05) errorbox  10317 sec after notice time and 10401 sec after trigger time at 2025-08-07 18:36:29 UT, with upper limit up to  17.8 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 76 deg. The sun  altitude  is -32.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -58 deg., longitude l = 300 deg.
