MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the IceCube Alert 200620.13 (trigger No 33533447,10h 48m 26.40s , +11d 57m 00.0s, R=0.68) errorbox  48529 sec after notice time and 48560 sec after trigger time at 2020-06-20 16:32:52 UT, with upper limit up to  18.4 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenith distance = 46 deg. The sun  altitude  is -10.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 58 deg., longitude l = 236 deg.
