Jan 11 (Reuters) - A U.S. soldier was killed by a roadside bomb outside Falluja on Tuesday, the U.S. military said.

The U.S. military also reported the death of two U.S. soldiers on Tuesday after fighting in Anbar province.

Following are the latest figures for military deaths in Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003:

U.S.-LED COALITION FORCES:

United States 3,019

Britain 128

Other nations 123

IRAQIS:

Military Between 4,900 and 6,375#

Civilians Between 53,194 and 58,797*

# = Think-tank estimates for military under Saddam Hussein killed during the 2003 war. No reliable official figures have been issued since new security forces were set up in late 2003.

* = From www.iraqbodycount.net (IBC), run by academics and peace activists, based on reports from at least two media sources. IBC says on its Web site that the figure underestimates the true number of casualties.
