Holzmann Airasca et al., GCN 45181) errorbox 30093 sec after notice time and 30129 sec after trigger time at 2026-07-18 19:38:45 UT, with upper limit up to 16.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 79 deg. The sun altitude is -47.9 deg. The galactic latitude b = -70 deg., longitude l = 272 deg. Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=3433050 We obtain a following upper limits.
