It is understood the captain was from Dublin.

The MoD said: "It's with great sadness that we can confirm that Captain Rob Carnegie of the Royals Signals has died in an incident in the Brecons Beacons.

"The soldier's family have been informed and are being supported. Our thoughts are with them at this difficult time.

"As is normal in circumstances such as this, the incident is being investigated and it would be inappropriate to comment further."

An Army spokesman said: "An investigation is being carried out in the circumstances surrounding the incident."
