N. Pankov (HSE, IKI), A. Pozanenko (IKI), E. Klunko (ISTP), R. Ya. Inasaridze (AbAO) report on behalf of IKI-GRB-FuN:
We observed the field of a soft long GRB 250419A detected by far by SVOM (Wang et al., GCN 40168), and Swift (Page et al., GCN 40111; Page et al., GCN 40176) at the redshhift of z = 0.845 (Thakur et al., GCN 40174) with the 1.5-meter AZT-33IK telescope of the Sayan Solar Observatory (Mondy), and the 0.7-meter AS-32 telescope of the Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory (AbAO). The R-band observations began on 2025-04-19 at 15:21:16 UT, i.e. ~0.55 days since trigger at Mondy. The optical counterpart (López et al., GCN 40169; Xin et al., GCN 40170; Zheng et al., GCN 40171; Kumar et al., GCN 40172; Thakur et al., GCN 40174; Lipunov et al., GCN 40179; Odeh et al., GCN 40180; Perley & Bochenek, GCN 40181) is detected in the stacked image from both telescopes. The preliminary photometry is as follows:
