(KIAM) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:

We continue observations of the afterglow  (Singer et al., GCN 14967) of 
GRB 130702A  (Cheung  et al., GCN 14971; Collazzi  et al., GCN  14972) 
with AZT-22 telescope of Maidanak observatory.  A preliminary photometry 
of combined images is based on two SDSS stars suggested by Schulze et 
al. (GCN 14978) and used in our previous observations (Pozanenko et al, 
GCNs 14988, 14996)

It is clearly visible in the lc a rising SN (Schulze et al., GCN 14994; 
Cenko et al., GCN 1998; D'Elia et al., GCN 15000).
