Includes some things not obviously war-related, e.g. I found some Select Cemetery Registers accessible. Despite being provided by Ancestry UK, it says you get access to records from around the world.
See https://www.ancestry.co.uk/c/remembrance-day?
You need an Ancestry UK registration (free), even if you have one for another country, and may have to enter via the above link.
It's unclear whether it finishes at the start or end of Monday, so don't leave it too late.
As always with free periods, save anything of interest on your own device, as you'll need a sub to see it after the offer closes.

Surely they are war related as the cemeteries include graves of serving servicemen and civilian casualties.

Perhaps the clue is in "wartime", i.e. databases including records created during either of the two world wars are free, and those that don't aren't? :-\
