Violence in western Iraq has killed five U.S. troops: including four soldiers and a Marine.
The military says a roadside bomb killed the Marine Monday near the Syrian border.
It's the first announced U.S. death in Operation Iron Fist, a major sweep that began over the weekend.
Three soldiers assigned to the same unit as the Marine were killed by another roadside bomb while conducting combat operations in another town where a second major offensive started Tuesday.
The military also says it's investigating the fatal shooting of a soldier Monday near Fallujah, about 40 miles west of Baghdad.
At least 1,941 U.S. troops have died since the beginning of the Iraq war in March 2003.
