Feb 23 (Reuters) - A British Royal Marine died on Thursday from injuries sustained in a traffic accident while serving in Afghanistan this month, the Ministry of Defence said.

Another Marine was killed by an anti-personnel mine while on patrol in Afghanistan on Wednesday, bringing to 48 the number of British soldiers killed while on operations in the country since 2001.

One Spanish soldier was killed and two were wounded on Wednesday when a convoy of armoured ambulances was attacked in western Afghanistan, the first Spanish casualties there this year.

Here are the latest figures for foreign military deaths in Afghanistan since the Taliban government was toppled in 2001:

NATO/U.S.-LED COALITION FORCES:

United States 370

Britain 48

Canada 44

Spain 20

Germany 18

Other nations 34

TOTAL: 534

Last year was the bloodiest in Afghanistan since U.S.-led forces overthrew the Taliban in 2001.

More than 4,000 people were killed in fighting in 2006, a quarter of them civilians and more than 170 of them foreign soldiers.
