战火 zhànhuǒ @ 《现代汉语词典》
«名» 指战争(就其破坏作用和带来的祸害而言):~纷飞。

戰火 zhàn huǒ @ 《重編國語辭典修訂本》
戰爭、戰事。如:「這個繁榮的小鎮竟然在一夕之間毀於戰火,真是令人嘆惋!」
----------------

Editor: Adding "war" would dilute the definition.

"the flames of war" (in its usual figurative sense) is a very good match for 战火. Equating 战火 simply with 战争 would be inaccurate.
Diff:
- 戰火 战火 [zhan4 huo3] /the flames of war/
# + 戰火 战火 [[zhan4huo3]] /the flames of war; war/
 
+ 戰火 战火 [[zhan4huo3]] /the flames of war; the ravages of war/
