Molotov (KIAM) report on behalf of IKI-GRB-FuN:
We observed the two candidate counterparts from ZTF (Reusch et al., GCN
28441) of the neutrino event IceCube-200916A (Blaufuss et. al, GCN
28433) with AS-32 telescope of Abastumani observatory in R-filter.
In stacked images we cannot resolve point like sources of the
candidates. Photometry of candidates include their (presumably)
underlying host galaxies and presented below.

AT2020tno 2020-09-18 01:00:49 59110.04918 20*60 R 16.88 0.02 20.3 (1)
AT2020tnp 2020-09-18 01:39:12 59110.07306 12*60 R 19.62 0.22 20.0 (2)
The photometry is based on nearby USNO-B1.0 stars

In the case of AT2020tno the brightness is not distinguished from
magnitude of underlying object in catalogues.
The brightens of AT2020tnp is might be somewhat brighter than reported
by ZTF (r=20.41 +/- 0.14; Reusch et al., GCN 28441) and apparently
brighter than reported in catalogues.
