A famine-stricken area is a region experiencing severe food scarcity, leading to widespread hunger and malnutrition among its population. This situation often results from a combination of factors, including natural disasters, war, economic instability, and poor agricultural practices. In such areas, the lack of access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food can have devastating effects on health and livelihoods. Immediate humanitarian assistance is typically needed to address the crisis and alleviate suffering.
The term "stricken" is typically used when removing a ship's name and hull number from official Navy records of commissioned vessels. In essence, the ship is removed (stricken) from the the official register of active ships, and scheduled for decommissioning, mothballing or scrapping.
