As an aside , what’s happening in Yemen and Gaza is also sickening but there is a distinct lack of threads regarding these separate wars, which we are partly assisting the aggressive nations.
You are right on Yemen and Gaza of course. And other regions too, not to mention how disinterested people were when Russia entered Georgia and eastern Ukraine several years ago.

That said, this war is causing widespread economic disruption that others haven't, and given it's between the two biggest countries in Europe by size, and two of the biggest in population, and it's much closer to home, I think it's only natural that it does generate more 'interest'.
