MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope [1] located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB260718.91 (trigger No 806104130,00h 29m 02.40s , -00d 33m 00.0s, R=11.89) errorbox 792 sec after notice time and 803 sec after trigger time at 2026-07-18 22:02:09 UT, with upper limit up to 17.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 72 deg. The sun altitude is -75.6 deg.
The galactic latitude b = -63 deg., longitude l = 112 deg.
