Russia's extensive military invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022 and the extensive conse-quences of the continuation of this war have caused the world's food security to face serious challenges due to the fact that these two countries play an important role in the supply and export of grains and oilseeds. This research has sought to use the descriptive-analytical meth-od to test the hypotheses and the library and data collection method to collect data, using the popular Pakistani human security theory, to this Answer the question: What effect did the war between Russia and Ukraine have on the food security of the world? The results indicate that, although the war in Ukraine had quickly disrupted the supply and increased the global price of grains, oilseeds and agricultural inputs, but this process did not continue and therefore with the support measures of countries and International organizations, such as the partial reopen-ing of Black Sea ports through the Black Sea Grain Initiative under the guidance of the Unit-ed Nations, the European Union Solidarity Lines Initiative, increasing global humanitarian efforts, canceling or reducing export restrictions of major food producing and exporting coun-tries. After a period of 4 months since the start of the war in Ukraine, from May 2022 on-wards, the markets have gradually become flexible and adaptable in the face of this crisis, and the prices have returned to the pre-war level by August 2022. This trend improved the adverse effects of the Ukraine crisis on the world's food security significantly and the fear of a contin-uous lack of grain in the world market did not come true.
