It's an interesting business decision to suspend services.

I can imagine it's to limit liability when Uber vehicles are damaged in fighting and suddenly Ubers insurance policies take massive losses.

In the UK Uber provides insurance during drivers' work, I wouldn't be surprised if the policy is just suspended/doesn't apply during war. Which would mean asking drivers to accept the risk personally, self insuring or finding another insurer. All seem impractical.
