Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and Israel have both denied responsibility for the attack as the United Nations investigates.
The trio were acting as military observers for the United Nations and were unarmed and on foot patrolling the border town of Rmeish when they were injured by the blast.
Australia's Department of Defence confirmed an Australian soldier was among those injured, telling 9news they suffered "non-life-threatening blast injuries" and have been released to recover. "We are very visible. We have white vehicles with the UN written on it, big blue flags, so very difficult to think that we are somebody else," she said.
