The term ring of fire was used to describe an annular solar eclipse (an event not related to earthquakes) that happened last February 26, 2017 (a Sunday). An annular solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun but only covers the sun's center, (as opposed to a total solar eclipse in which the entire sun is covered) creating a "ring of fire".

Hope my answer helps.

Some were never born, having been detected by ultrasound scans and aborted. Others died young as a result of being neglected more than boys. Some villages in the north have an alarming surplus of boys and young men. Yet attitudes and behaviour are changing. In India, and in the world as a whole, the war on baby girls seems to be winding down.
