Inasaridze (AbAO) report on behalf of IKI-GRB-FuN:\n\nWe performed optical observations of the field of GRB 251001B detected by Fermi/GBM (The Fermi GBM team et. al, GCN 42038), and Swift/BAT (Beardmore et. al, GCN 42039) with the AS-32 0.7m telescope of the Abastumani Observatory (AbAO). The R-filter observations began on 2025-10-01 22:37 UT, i.e. ~0.35 days since trigger and consisted of 55x30 s exposures. The optical source at z = 2.162 (Sanchez-Ramirez et. al, GCN 42053) found by GOTO (Gompertz et. al, GCN 42040) and also observed by (An et. al, GCN 42041; Strausbaugh & Cucchiara, GCN 42043; O'Neill et. al, GCN 42046; de Ugarte Postigo et. al, GCN 42050; Ma et. al, GCN 42051; Sanchez-Ramirez et. al, GCN 42053; Schneider et. al, GCN 42054; Breeveld et. al, GCN 42055) is not detected in the co-add image of 51x30 s.
