MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  [1]  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) was pointed to the SVOM GRB251203.76 (trigger No 1764785366,01h 13m 50.30s , -00d 00m 00.4s, R=0.1345) errorbox  927 sec after notice time and 1072 sec after trigger time at 2025-12-03 18:27:18 UT, with upper limit up to  14.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 44 deg. The sun  altitude  is -52.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -62 deg., longitude l = 136 deg.


Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
