A 28-year-old Australian soldier has died, and five others are injured, following a routine training exercise in the Northern Territory.

It happened at the Mount Bundey Training Area, around 130km from Darwin, a site used by the Australian Defence Force and its allies. Two soldiers remain in a Darwin hospital in a stable condition. The other three are being monitored in a hospital ward at Darwin's Robertson Barracks. SBS NT Correspondent Josh van Staden is there and has more.
