(Campana et al. GCN 5162; French & Jelinek GCN 5165; Rykoff et al. GCN
5166) with Russian-Turkish 1.5-m telescope (RTT150, Bakirlitepe,TUBITAK
National Observatory, Turkey). A series of frames were taken on May
31. The afterglow is detected on combined images in both V and R bands.
We estimate the following Rc magnitudes for the OT:
