MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Applied Physics Institute, Irkutsk State University) was pointed to the Swift GRB 250924A ( M. H. Siegel et al., GCN 41959) errorbox  13196 sec after notice time and 13280 sec after trigger time at 2025-09-24 11:59:49 UT, with upper limit up to  16.2 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 49 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 15 deg., longitude l = 133 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
