As a Pokemon go player, I would say it isn't.
There's even a Pokemon exclusive to the middle east region: sandstorm pattern Vivillion. Lots of players there.

"The Middle-east" isn't a war zone. Even the parts of the middle-east that are, don't have any drone deployments. Lebanon maybe? Reports are thin.
Maxar is/was primarily a satellite data company, and to say Pokemon data would add any major value in any of today's active drone deployments with the level of Satellite coverage Maxar already has is a wide stretch.
Moreover, ground forces in the area would need pretty heavy jamming tech in place too for this kind of data to be useful. It's a sliver of a sliver of a sliver situation.
> "The Middle-east" isn't a war zone.
According to Wikipedia, more than half of the Middle East countries are either belligerents or were otherwise attacked in the ongoing war.
Even with the relatively small countries in the middle east, a country is a large place and so being attacked doesn't make the whole a war zone.
I think pretty heavy ubiquitous jamming is absolutely a feature of modern warfare now. Ukraine is a model of what's to cone
Obtaining it never means having to scan anything at any time.
That's true, it's obtained from gifting.
But what I mean is that there are enough players there to be significant part of the ecosystem. The war made obtaining those Vivillion harder.
I don't understand how it's related.
I am a daily player, I have scanned something once, the rewards were minuscule, I never did it again. I have that specific vivillon which was hard to get because not many players were from the relevant area even before the current events, and I just can't see how the war is related to any of this.
