MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  [1]  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) was pointed to the LAT GRB251208.43 (trigger No 786881842,15h 13m 55.20s , +29d 04m 12.0s, R=0.07) errorbox  23885 sec after notice time and 49564 sec after trigger time at 2025-12-09 00:03:21 UT, with upper limit up to  12.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 82 deg. The sun  altitude  is -47.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 58 deg., longitude l = 45 deg.
