Yu. Krugly (Institute of Astronomy of Kharkiv National University), 
R.Inasaridze, O. Kvaratskhelia(Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory), 
I. Molotov (KIAM), A. Pozanenko (IKI)  report on behalf of  larger GRB 
follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of the Swift GRB 121123A (Helder et al., GCN 
13982) with AC-32 (0.7m Maksutov) telescope of Abastumani Observatory, 
starting on Nov. 23 (UT) 15:18. We took several unfiltered images of 180 
s exposure. We clearly detected the afterglow (Helder et al., GCN 13982; 
Zhao et al., GCN 13983) in every  single image. The photometry of the 
stacked images is based on USNO-B1.0 stars (R2):
