The incident happened in the Boya area of North Waziristan, a stronghold of militants linked to the Taliban and al Qaeda.
"At least three soldiers embraced shahadat in an Improvised Explosive Device explosion," the military said in a statement.
North Waziristan is frequently targeted by US drones. A drone strike on August 31 on a compound in the Heso Khel area killed at least four militants.
