I know false surrender is a crime, but using propaganda to trick the enemy into a surrender by pretending to be them, I wasn't sure. I guess - is this a tool we will see more often or a tool not fit for civilized warfare?

It's a form of what is called 'black propaganda': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_propaganda
