Factions 1 and 2 of World A have been fighting for eons. Then out of luck, Faction 1 finds World B, which was completely unrelated to the war and had no involvement whatsoever. Faction 1 might send spies into World B, in hopes that it proves useful to them. Faction 2 later learns of World B's existence and sends its forces there, turning World B into another battleground for World A's war.
In a situation like this, the inhabitants of World B would be taken completely by surprise and must find a way to deal with this unexpected twist in events. Some may take sides among the various factions. Others may try to become intermediaries, hoping to find some kind of diplomatic solution. And there are those who want to become a third faction to drive out both.
The warring factions don't exactly have to be Trapped in Another World either, they just have to fight each other on World B, which had absolutely had nothing to do with them until now. The war could be either secretive or full-scale, old or pretty recent. The trope does not count if World B had public knowledge of Factions 1 & 2 and got involved beforehand, which would just be a neutral country being attacked by both of its neighbors. However, it can apply to an isolated island that gets invaded by two or countries elsewhere.
Compare Alien Invasion, which is a war between an invading world and the invaded one. Contrast Truce Zone, an area where warring agree not to fight, especially if the areas are neutral, have nothing to do with the war, or are too important to risk any damage. This may involve Invading Refugees. See also Proxy War when the offworlders try to use groups on the neutral planet against their enemies.

Confederation of Valor: In the backstory, the Confederation became embroiled in a war with a rival alliance referred to as "the Others", and is made up of species that had long since evolved away from war, made First Contact with humanity and gave them advanced technology in exchange for fighting the war for them.

Some Gate fics or inspired fics have several gates opening to the Special Region from Earth. The result is this trope as the nations or factions war with each other, but take the fighting to the Special Region with different policies over how to deal with the inhabitants.

Starcraft starts as one of these at the beginning. The Terrans were the only known sentient beings in the Koprulu sector with the Confederacy as the primary superpower. Then the Zerg and Protoss show up, who fought each other for a longer period of time and brought the war right to their doorstep.

In The Rising of the Shield Hero, the Four Heroes are all summoned via a magical ritual to the realm that the Kingdom of Melromarc is located, each of the heroes summoned from our world (or perhaps multiple, alternate versions of our world) with the goal of helping fend off the various monsters and magical threats that plague the land via the Waves of Calamity. The ritual equips them with their own magical, sacred weapons (a spear, a sword, a bow and a shield) that imbues them with uniques stats and abilities. The Waves of Calamity are the result of two or more parallel worlds fusing together. Some of the worlds already have their own wars going on, which have now poured into the kingdom, resulting in even more chaos.

The Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri expansion "Alien Crossfire". Two ships from warring factions of an alien race, the Manifold Caretakers and Manifold Usurpers, crash land on the same planet being colonized by humanity's remnants. While each alien faction is able to make deals and alliances with any of the human factions, the game explicitly prevents them from interacting with one another except through fighting, which is explained as them hating one another so much (due to their diametrically opposed philosophies) that they can't even conceive of cooperation or a ceasefire. Both factions are descended from the race of Precursors who have turned Planet into what it is (and it's not even the first time they've done it).

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003): The Season 3 premiere, which consists of two back-to-back Multi-Part Episodes, is all about this trope as Earth finds itself caught in the crossfire of an Evil Versus Evil conflict between the Triceraton Republic and the Federation. Initially, the Triceratons invade Earth as part of their hunt for the Fugitoid, a Living MacGuffin who possesses the blueprints for a teleportation device that both sides seek to weaponize. Later, the Federation also gets involved and secretly make a deal with the US government to capture the Fugitoid. The three-part episodes where the two rival empires finally duke it out is appropriately titled "Worlds Collide".

In Master of Formalities, two planets (Apios and the Hahn Home World) have been at war for centuries. Due to an agreement mediated by the Masters of Formalities, both noble houses limit their fighting to the world of Ophion 6. In the end, it's revealed that Migg is descended from refugees from Ophion 6, who were forced to flee when two armies descended on their world and began to fight. All her machinations had the goal of ending the fighting and getting the armies to leave her ancestral world.

In Discordia, all the "aliens" (actually, travelers from parallel Earths) are basically fighting a multidimensional Cold War with each other, hoping to claim as many worlds as possible while unwilling to engage each other directly due to M.A.D. None of them really care about our world, they're just here to spread their agenda and chalk another Earth in their "win" column.

World of Warcraft: This has happened no less than four times in the overall timeline of the setting.
The first time was the Orcish Horde on Draenor — twisted by the Burning Legion — which fought a war of annihilation against the Draenei (in an attempt by the leaders of the Burning Legion to wipe them out for their "betrayal" 50,000 years ago, which translates as "not joining them in their war to eradicate all life in the universe") and eventually expanded the war into an invasion of Azeroth.
The second time was the armies of the Alliance invading Draenor in retaliation, carrying the war back to its world of origin. Twice — immediately after the first invasion, and subsequently during the events of The Burning Crusade against the Legion itself (and a few others).
The fourth time was (yet another) invasion from an alternate timeline of Draenor to Azeroth, and the counter-invasion in Warlords of Draenor.

In Invasion: Earth by Harry Harrison, a group of alien ships requests aid from Earth against an incoming group of invaders. There is a big twist at the end. Specifically, the two warring groups are actually working together. They're survivors from an ancient war between their races with no home to go back to. So they seek out primitive races to scam for radioactive materials, with one of the races pretending to be the good guys, and the other pretending to be the villains. They use holograms to simulate fighting, although they do drop radiation bombs on Denver and Tomsk, killing millions, just to sell the war.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Occurs with somewhat increasing frequency because of Palpatine's machinations forcing many of the neutral planets to side with either the Republic or the Separatists. This is most prominent in the episodes "Jedi Crash" and "Defenders of Peace" in Season 1, when Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, his padawan Ashoka Tano, and Jedi Master Aayla Secura crash land on Maridun. When the native peaceful Lurmen agree to aid the grievously injured Skywalker, the Separatists arrive not long after to claim the planet as their colony. Despite the combined efforts of the Jedi, their Clone Troopers, and the native Lurmen successfully destroying the Separatist forces, the Lurmen ultimately agree to join the Republic.

In the Space: 1999 episode "The Last Enemy", the Moon drifts into a star system that contains two planets, on opposite sides of their sun, which are at war with each other. Both sides land battleships on the lunar surface in order to launch missiles at the other planet and are subject to massive retaliation by their enemy, endangering Moonbase Alpha.

Aura Battler Dunbine is a very unique isekai series not just by preceding most of the modern hits of the genre, but also having the alternate world of Byston Well undergo a Mass Teleportation into the modern world a.k.a. Upper Earth.
Considering the first time Aura Battlers appeared, the Upper Earth military attacks first, resulting in the annihilation of most air forces, the liberal use of nuclear weapons, and up to total destruction of entire cities including national capitals. Drake later takes advantage of his affiliation with those from the United States (i.e. Shot Weapon and Todd Guinness) to acquire a staging ground for conquering the rest of Upper Earth. At the same time, one of Drake's more powerful allies indiscriminately attacks cities in Europe, causing the continent's nations to cast their support for the heroes.
What really separates this apart from other series is how Aura is at least ten times more potent in Upper Earth than in Byston Well. Shou witnesses first hand that small missiles only made for destroying Aura Battlers have the power of mini-nukes, killing over a million people in Tokyo, and Aura Barriers are able to shake off nuclear weapons like nothing. The whole final arc is about the rebels stopping Drake before the world turns into a desolated wasteland; this ends with the complete obliteration of everyone, heroes and villains and both their armies alike, so that Aura technology can never threaten the Earth again.

Conversely, Dust and Echoes has the UNSC discovering Remnant in the midst of the war with the Covenant. They know the Covenant will find the world sooner or later(indeed the Action Prologue is just that happening, before the story proper shows How We Got Here), and that Remnant's people and technologies offer something that can turn the war around in their favor. But High Command has punted the Idiot Ball for once, and is being very careful to ally/annex Remnant as positively as possible.

Universe at War: Earth Assault starts with an alien race called the Hierarchy (based on the Tripods from The War of the Worlds and real-life UFO lore) invading Earth to strip-mine it. Humanity is only saved by the intervention of the Novus, an animesque race of machines whose followed the Hierarchy to Earth to avenge their fallen creators. In the course of the war, a third alien race, the Masari, are revealed to have been lurking on Earth as benevolent Ancient Astronauts and also enter the fray. After the tutorial, humanity is largely irrelevant as three alien races duke it out on their home planet.

The premise of Xenoblade Chronicles X starts with Earth getting blown up in the crossfire of two alien forces. While one of the two factions actually was trying to kill off humanity, the planet was blown up by accident before they had a chance to actually destroy it.

Star Trek: The Original Series:
Inverted in "A Taste of Armageddon". The Enterprise crew are conducting negotiations with the Eminians when the computer that simulates their war with a neighboring planet records a hit on the ship, and the Eminians demand that Kirk and his crew report for execution to "simulate" deaths from the attack. Kirk instead destroys the computer, and the Federation mediates an end to the war.
Two episodes deal with the Space Cold War between the Federation and the Klingon Empire bleeding over onto neutral planets.
In "A Private Little War", the Klingons give muskets to one set of tribes on a pre-industrial planet so they can conquer their enemies in exchange for allegiance, starting a Proxy War. Kirk is forced to arm the rival tribes similarly to restore the balance of power.
In "Errand of Mercy", however, the natives turn out to be Sufficiently Advanced Aliens and force both sides to back down, mediating a truce.

In Weight of the World, the people of Remnant have been at war with Salem and her Grimm for millennia. Atlas, a Kingdom of Remnant, discovers Earth's existence and secretly sends spies to the planet to see if its people and resources can be useful to their side. A decade later, an Atlas traitor tells Salem about Earth's existence. Out of the desire to kill any and all potential hosts for Ozpin, Salem sends hordes of her Grimm to Earth, including Spawner-types, which spawn an endless amount of Grimm. This pulls Earth into Remnant's war. Earth is not happy to be dragged into another world's war, and the Terran death toll rises so much that some parties consider using nuclear weapons on Remnant in order to kill the Grimm at their source and save their world.

The marketing for Alien vs. Predator used the tagline "Whoever wins... We lose" to imply this trope. However, the movie itself doesn't feature it.

Super Robot Wars X has the X-Cross fight sandwiched on a two-sided front, with one being the Empire of Misurugi waging war on the inhabitants of Al-Warth. How does such a nation with abysmal weapons besides its Bug-inspired drones do that? They summon people from existing wars (hence the Mariemeia Army insurrection, Zogilia-Free Pact Alliance War, all the conflicts within Gundam: Reconguista in G, with some Universal Century antagonists for good measure) and recruit the more antagonistic factions to do the fighting for them.

Blackest Night: The main plot is about the war between the Black Lantern Corps and all the rest of the Lantern Corps of the universe, who have to team-up against their will to stop a bigger evil and not become the next Black Lantern. In the last issues, the intergalactic war goes to Earth since Nekron found the Entity of Life hidden on Earth, guiding all his Corps to Earth so he can eliminate it and all forms of life on the universe.

Downplayed in Doctor Who: Earth sometimes becomes strategically important in the Forever War between the Sontarans and the Rutans, leading to anything from a scout to an invasion plan by one side or the other in various episodes. However, the two sides have never actually squared off on Earth, which is a long way from the main battlegrounds and remote enough that by the time one side takes an interest in it the other is long gone.
However, the Licensed Game Doctor Who: The Adventure Games- The Gunpowder Plot does play the trope straight, as the Sontarans and the Rutans secretly plot against each other in Stuart England.

Freedom Planet: Torque points out that the war his team has been putting up with against Brevon's army has resulted in many innocent worlds being destroyed by Brevon's hand, and the reason he and Brevon came to Avalice is for the kingdom stone. Brevon wants the kingdom stone for his army, while Torque wants to ensure that Brevon doesn't get it by any means. Upon hearing Torque's story, Lilac, Carol, and Milla all agree to help him stop Brevon, because they consider Torque a friend and since their planet is just as much on the line.

Most forms of the Transformers boil down to this: The war between the Autobots and Decepticons spills over to Earth. Sometimes accidentally, sometimes on purpose. Usually depending on which side found us first.
