Something like this could show you the sign in events of users that received an email from said address.
I am not sure if you can see if they clicked it or not though, through these logs.
let SuspiciousEmails = toscalar(EmailEvents
| where SenderMailFromAddress == ""
| summarize make_list(RecipientEmailAddress));
let Identities = IdentityInfo
| mv-apply RecipientEmailAddress=SuspiciousEmails to typeof(string) on
(where SipProxyAddress contains RecipientEmailAddress)
| distinct AccountObjectId,RecipientEmailAddress;

| join Identities on AccountObjectId
Thank you so much Jonhed.
I managed to put together some KQL queries. As I'm learning this query language just need more practice to join multiple tables sources. Please review and help to refine the query.
// This query finds network communication to specific Phishing URL (confirms users has clicked the links on company issued devices)
let partialRemoteUrlToDetect = "XYZ"; // Change this to a URL you'd like to find machines connecting to
DeviceNetworkEvents
| where Timestamp > ago(3d)
and RemoteUrl has partialRemoteUrlToDetect
| project Timestamp, DeviceName, InitiatingProcessAccountUpn
// Above will give list of usersnames, devicename who have clicked. Take those values and run it agains the AD signin Logs, which are comming from different country.
AADSignInEventsBeta
|where ErrorCode != 50142
|where AlternateSignInName in ('Usernames1, Usernames2, Usernames3')
|project DeviceName, OSPlatform, AccountDisplayName
// Get antivirus scan events, including completed and cancelled scans
DeviceEvents
| where ActionType startswith "AntivirusScan" and Timestamp > ago(1d)
| extend ScanDesc = parse_json(AdditionalFields)
|project Timestamp, DeviceName, ActionType, Domain = ScanDesc.Domain, ScanId= ScanDesc.ScanId, User = ScanDesc.User, ScanParametersIndex = ScanDesc.ScanParametersIndex, ScanTypeIndex = ScanDesc.ScanTypeIndex
//| where AccountName in ('Usernames1, Usernames2, Usernames3')
// Gives a list of sharing activities in cloud apps if there were any external users sharing.
CloudAppEvents
|where AccountDisplayName in ('Usernames1, Usernames2, Usernames3')
| where ActivityType == "Share"- This might give you some ideas of how to track URLs clicked, in addition to the queries you just posted.
