MASTER-Tunka robotic telescope [1] located in Russia (Applied Physics Institute, Irkutsk State University) started inspect of the Fermi GRB251218.33 (trigger No 787736968,01h 20m 19.20s , +08d 31m 12.0s, R=2) errorbox 12771 sec after notice time and 12805 sec after trigger time at 2025-12-18 11:22:48 UT, with upper limit up to 15.0 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 44 deg. The sun altitude is -21.0 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -53 deg., longitude l = 136 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here:
