Inasaridze (AbAO), and S. Belkin (IKI) report on behalf of GRB IKI FuN:

We observed the optical transient of  ZZTF23aabmzlp/AT2023azs  (Andreoni 
et al., GCN 33229) with AZT-33IK telescope of Mondy observatory starting 
on 2023-01-29 (UT) 21:25:32 and AS-32 Abastumani observatory (AbAO) on 
2023-01-30 (UT) 17:04:08. We detect the transient (Andreoni et al., GCN 
33229; Kumar et al., GCN 33230; Gupta et al., GCN 33237) with AZT-33IK 
and obtained an upper limit with AS-32.

Preliminary photometry of the transient is following
