Supernova ZTF20aayknlo/Gaia20cgo/SN2020jee was first detected on 2020-05-05 by the ZTF survey at coordinates RA(2000)=11:42:14.70, DEC(2000)=20:05:51.07 and was classified as SN Type Ia (Dahiwale
et al. 2020, https://wis-tns.weizmann.ac.il/object/2020jee). The object is located approximately in the center of a very weakly radiating galaxy MCG + 03-30-048 in a large cluster of galaxies in this region. Here, we report on photometric and spectroscopic follow-up observations of this target from May 21 to June 23, 2020, obtained with 2 m Shamakhy Astrophysical Observatory (ShAO) telescope in Azerbaijan. Spectral observations were made at the Cassegrain focus of the 2 m telescope with UAGS+objective Canon EF (f=200 mm, f/2) + CCD Andor (iKonL-936-BEX2-DD 2048x2048, px=13.5 um) spectrograph. The spectral range is 3750-7650 A. The width of the slit was 3.3". The spectral resolution is about 6 A/px. Spectrophotometric standard stars were observed every night immediately after the object. The spectra were processed with IRAF and DECH software. Photometry was carried out on a 30 cm guide-refractor of the 2 m telescope. A photometer with broadband filters BVRc is installed in the focus of the refractor tube (f=5050 mm). The light receiver was a CCD FLI 2048x3072.

The maximum brightness spectrum shows bands of the Si II, Fe II, Fe III, Ca II line groups which are clearly distinguished. We measured the shift of the Si II line, where two lines at 6347+6371 A are dominated. On May 21, 2020, the enhancement velocity of the photosphere shell was obtained at about -10116 +/- 15 km/s. The photometric and spectroscopic data can be requested from the authors.
