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 GRB251005.60 (trigger No 781367244,19h 54m 28.80s , -08d 55m 12.0s, R=6.5) errorbox  11063 sec after notice time and 11097 sec after trigger time at 2025-10-05 17:32:16 UT, with upper limit up to  17.8 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 23 deg. The sun  altitude  is -11.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -19 deg., longitude l = 32 deg.
