Abstract
The article analyzes changes in the religiosity of Ukrainians during the Russian-Ukrainian war as a large-scale event. It explores the nature of the connection between the traumatic experience of war and religiosity and determines the trajectory of changes in the religiosity of Ukrainians during the war. It has been established that the Russian-Ukrainian war caused social upheavals accompanied by crises in various spheres of public life. As a large-scale tragic event, the war became a catalyst for changes in self-assessment of faith in God and participation in religious practices. The level of religiosity of Ukrainians during the war was significantly influenced by feelings of insecurity and existential uncertainty. The traumatic experience of war, on the one hand, leads to an increase in religiosity, and on the other hand, prompts a revision of previous ideas and attitudes towards religion.
