MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  [1]  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the Swift GRB251221.23 (trigger No 1426088,06h 45m 37.92s , +00d 43m 44.4s, R=0.05) errorbox  19 sec after notice time and 67 sec after trigger time at 2025-12-21 05:25:39 UT, with upper limit up to  18.2 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 32 deg. The sun  altitude  is -34.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -0 deg., longitude l = 212 deg.
