“…However, the number of vaccinated people in Ukraine will not surpass 40% until June 2022. It has one of the lowest rates of vaccination among middle-income countries (Poberezhets, 2022;Uwishema et al, 2022).

Religion, governance, and politics–as well as related topics such as human rights, justice, and so on–have historically caused many of the world’s most significant conflicts, and they continue to do so because these issues are often the most fundamental in the structure of a society. To gain a military advantage, parties to armed conflicts have polluted water, burned crops, cut down forests, poisoned soils, and killed animals over the years. A variety of context factors, particularly socioeconomic conditions, governance, and political factors, interact and play a key role in translating climate change into conflict risks. The present unrest all over the world risks putting more than half of the countries into a crisis of health, economy, and social safety, which is the biggest threat to human civilization. The security and safety of healthcare facilities, workers, and supply lines remain paramount concerns along with access to health services, technology, and innovation.

Although many studies take the event study and fuzzy set approach, there is a lack of studies on the impact of international conflict on different sectors within a country. This study uses this approach to calculate abnormal return and cumulative abnormal return to investigate the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war on the U.S. Stock Market of 20 representative companies of 10 U.S. sectors. Covering a 10-day timeframe before and 10-day window following the start of the war which was on 24 February, 2022, and the estimation window is set to 300 days. The research shows that the Russia-Ukraine war has a varied influence on each of the ten industries because of the U.S. sanctions against Russia, the companies in fast-moving consumer goods sector, healthcare sector, consumer discretionary sector, industries sector and materials sector are adversely affected, but energy sector, information technology sector, communication service sector and real estate sector are not affected by the war. Unlike others, the financial sector is most adversely affected.
