Diggers injured in roadside bomb attack

Double reason for these guys to remember ANZAC Day TWO Australian soldiers were injured when a roadside bomb went off near their armoured vehicle in southern Iraq, the Department of Defence said today. One soldier suffered lower leg injuries while the other suffered less serious wounds in the attack north of An Nasariyah in Dhiqar province yesterday. Their injuries are not believed to be life threatening. The soldiers were evacuated to the US hospital at the Tallil air base and may be moved to Baghdad for further treatment, Defence said. One Australian light armoured vehicle was destroyed in the blast and subsequent fire, while a second was damaged.
