There are always atrocities in wars.
Most are real.

My great-uncle, for instance, was an eye-witness of many grotesque Japanese atrocities, having been a prisoner of the Kempeitai (he survived by sheer chance), and he testified at Yamashitas trial.

I have worked at translating his Kempeitai memoir, starting and stopping several time.

Much of that testimony, much of which came out in public hearings, btw, is about cases of almost unbelievable cruelty. And yet there were cases that were not discussed in public.
And there were so many possible cases, many tens of thousands, or 100,000 plus, that the vast majority could not be included for lack of investigative resources.

Highly recommended - “Rampage”, Scott, 2018. This is just a survey of what went down between the Japanese and Filipinos in Feb-March 1945. The tip of an iceberg.

All sides in wars can and do perpetrate them. The difference between sides is largely in terms of frequency and viciousness. Its one thing for a soldier to shoot a surrendering enemy in a trench. Its quite another to mutilate helpless people in a prison camp.

The Russians have had vastly more opportunity to do so in Ukraine than the Ukrainians.
