A third Australian soldier is believed to have been injured in Monday night's roadside bombing in southern Iraq.
Defence has yet to confirm reports of another casualty but says a statement will be released soon.
It's believed the soldier's arm was broken during the bombing, which injured two other soldiers and destroyed an Australian light armoured vehicle (ASLAV).
The soldiers were patrolling north of An Nasariyah in the Dhi Qar province when an improvised explosive device detonated as their convoy passed at about 6.30 pm on Monday local time.
