The observations began at zenith distance = 80 deg. The sun altitude is -18.4 deg. MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) was pointed to the EP251221a errorbox 77221 sec after notice time and 1 days 14196 sec after trigger time at 2025-12-23 01:35:42 UT, with upper limit up to 18.3 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 48 deg. The sun altitude is -32.6 deg. The galactic latitude b = 12 deg., longitude l = 193 deg. Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=3080482 We obtain a following upper limits.
