MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) started inspect of the Fermi GRB210424.69 (trigger No 640975205,12h 25m 26.40s , +37d 46m 48.0s, R=8.58) errorbox  1709 sec after notice time and 1 days 15354 sec after trigger time at 2021-04-25 20:55:55 UT, with upper limit up to  14.7 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 66 deg. The sun  altitude  is -60.4 deg. 

MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) started inspect of the Fermi GRB210424.69 errorbox  1933 sec after notice time and 1 days 15578 sec after trigger time at 2021-04-25 20:59:39 UT, with upper limit up to  17.1 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 16 deg. The sun  altitude  is -31.9 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = 79 deg., longitude l = 147 deg.
