A. S. Moskvitin, O. I. Spiridonova (SAO RAS),
report on behalf of GRB follow-up team.

We observed the field of the GRB 251014A (Ambrosi et al., GCN 42238;
The Fermi GBM team, GCN 42237; de Barra et al., GCN 42249) 
with the 1-m SAO RAS telescope Zeiss-1000 equipped 
with the CCD-photometer. We obtained 7 x 300 sec. images in Rc band 
under mediocre weather conditions on 2025.10.14, 00:51:01--01:38:56 UT 
(t_mid - T0 = 0.77458 hours).

Within our FOV (covers ~80% of northern part of Swift-BAT error 
circle) we do not detect any new source down to the limiting 
magnitude of R_lim = 21.5. The field calibrated against nearby 
USNO-B1.0 stars (R2 magnitudes) and not corrected for the Galactic 
extinction.
