MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope  [1]  located in Russia (Applied Physics Institute, Irkutsk State University) was pointed to the SVOM GRB251116.66 (trigger No 1763308636,22h 21m 03.65s , -10d 24m 37.8s, R=0.1302) errorbox  25 sec after notice time and 310 sec after trigger time at 2025-11-16 16:02:26 UT, with upper limit up to  13.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 83 deg. The sun  altitude  is -56.4 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -51 deg., longitude l = 52 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
