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) started inspect of the Fermi GRB250926.83 (trigger No 780609036,19h 26m 38.40s , -80d 55m 48.0s, R=7.6) errorbox  112 sec after notice time and 144 sec after trigger time at 2025-09-26 19:52:55 UT, with upper limit up to  18.2 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 54 deg. The sun  altitude  is -40.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -29 deg., longitude l = 313 deg.
