MASTER-Amur robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University) was pointed to the IceCube Alert 230306.46 (trigger No 79205800,04h 50m 20.40s , +34d 05m 16.8s, R=0.51) errorbox  917 sec after notice time and 973 sec after trigger time at 2023-03-06 11:15:43 UT, with upper limit up to  14.3 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 25 deg. The sun  altitude  is -19.4 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -6 deg., longitude l = 169 deg.
