A female civilian who was injured in Pakistani shelling on the International Border in Jammu and Kashmir, died at a hospital on Sunday, police said.

"Three other civilians injured this incident are being treated in the hospital," police said.

Indian and Pakistan troops have been exchanging heavy fire in the Arnia sub-sector for the last three days.

On Saturday, Jammu district officials visited the border residents and assured them that in case the situation worsens, arrangements would be made for their temporary shelter.
