Millions of Ukrainians flee their country seeking refuge in the neighbouring European countries. The war not only generated a global discussion among the governments but also among the scientific community. All around the globe the researchers have been studying and publishing based on this war. This study performs a bibliometric analysis on these published documents using Dimensions database.
