Doesn’t Arma 3 have an entire DLC based around war crimes and cleaning mines/explosives after a brutal war?
Absolutely, it’s the only video game I know of to have direct consultation from the International Committee of the Red Cross to portray humanitarian aid in war zones.

Footage from Arma 3 has been used repeatedly across all sorts of propaganda for many years. It’s one of the best mil sim games ever created, even some US govt contractors that build sim training modules are impressed by how accurate some of it looks.

It’s fine, Hamas also uses scenes from movies in their propaganda all the time.
