MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net [1-4], http://observ.pereplet.ru)
started inspect (Lipunov et al. GCN 42837)
of Fermi GRB 251125B ( GCN 42836) at MASTER-Tunka and MASTER-Kislovodsk.

MASTER auto-detection system discovered optical counterpart of this GRB

MASTER OT J155558.56+581224.1  with unfiltered m_OT=18.2 at 2025-11-25 20:34:32UT with typical for GRB light curve with decay.
