A. Volnova (IKI), A. Pozanenko (IKI) , N. Pankov (HSE, IKI), E. Klunko (ISTP) report on behalf of IKI-GRB-FuN:

We observed the field of the GRB 251025B (Hussein et al., GCN 42437) in the R-filter with the AZT-33IK 1.5m telescope of the Sayan Solar Observatory (Mondy) starting Oct. 26, 2025, 16:25:44 UT, and taking several frames with 120 s exposures. The optical counterpart (Wu et al., GCN 42438;  Gress et al., GCN 42439; Wu et al., GCN 42440;  Beardmore et al., GCN 42445; Mohan et al., GCN 42447; Hernández Funget al., GCN 42450; Pereyra et al., GCN 42452; Li et al., GCN 42453; Mo et al., GCN 42459; Rakotondrainibe et al., GCN 42460; Rajabov et al., 42466; Saccardi et al., 42472; Freeberg et al., 42474) is clearly detected in the stacked frame. Preliminary photometry is the following:

                     (mid,days)  (n*s)                       (3sigma)
2025-10-26  16:25:44  1.10532    60*120  R       20.50  0.05  23.1

The photometry is based on several nearby SDSS stars (R-magnitudes Lupton's transformation) and is not corrected for the Galactic extinction.
