Do I need to remove permissions before submitting them for review?

1. After uploading the app to the release channel, in the build description I see the following permissions required by the manifest.

 

android.permission.INTERNET
android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE
android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
com.android.vending.BILLING

 

These permissions were added by the Unreal Engine 5. Idont use them. Do I need to remove them manually before submitting my application for review?

2. I only use the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
After adding READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, the following permissions are automatically added:

 

android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
android.permission.READ_MEDIA_AUDIO
android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VIDEO
android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES
android.permission.ACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION
android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGE
android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VISUAL_USER_SELECTED

 

I cant remove them.
