A 26-year-old soldier has collapsed and died while on a moorland training exercise in North Yorkshire, police have said.
Emergency services were called to Barden Moor, near Leyburn just before 9am on Wednesday following a report that a man serving in the military had collapsed.
Despite the efforts of paramedics, the soldier was pronounced dead at the scene.
"We are not yet in a position to release his name. His family have been informed," said a North Yorkshire Police spokesman.
"Officers are working with the Army to establish the full circumstances surrounding the death."
He added that the soldier's death was not being treated at suspicious.
The soldier's collapse follows the deaths of three reservists in the Brecon Beacons who were on an SAS selection training course when temperatures reached 30C in July.
Corporal James Dunsby, Lance Corporal Criag Roberts and Trooper Eddie Maher were carrying heavy packs while attempting to cross the Pen y Fan mountain.
Conditions in North Yorkshire were much cooler on Wednesday, around 17C with a slight breeze.
It was not clear if the soldiers in training were carrying heavy loads during this exercise.
