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 250708.59 (trigger No 11292662,14h 52m 41.28s , +26d 45m 18.0s, R=0.51) errorbox 10955 sec after notice time and 11017 sec after trigger time at 2025-07-08 17:08:56 UT, with upper limit up to 18.8 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 61 deg. The sun altitude is -16.8 deg.
The galactic latitude b = 63 deg., longitude l = 39 deg.
Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=2929205
We obtain a following upper limits.
