D'Elia et al., GCN 38681) errorbox 53242 sec after notice time and 53275 sec after trigger time at 2024-12-28 18:45:10 UT, with upper limit up to 16.7 mag. Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenith distance = 72 deg. The sun altitude is -11.2 deg. The galactic latitude b = -37 deg., longitude l = 90 deg. Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=2724378 We obtain a following upper limits.
