Am I expecting too much to eventually see some party take responsibility for this ?
......and why would that be expecting too much ?
Maybe, because it is a war/conflict ?
Misdirected targets need an apology if unsuspecting civilians are killed.
If there is no apology or claim of responsibility, someone is lying and placing rhetoric before innocence. (or guilt)
It's disheartening.
There has been ample time for the shooters to raise their hands, in a highly regrettable "oops".
They know who they are......and they are the hidden greased pivot for any resulting bunk or conspiracy.
The 4th Geneva Convention addresses the issue of among other things, civilian casualties.

ARTICLE 3
In the case of armed conflict not of an international character occurring in the territory of one of the High Contracting Parties, each Party to the conflict shall be bound to apply, as a minimum, the following provisions :
(l) Persons taking no active part in the hostilities, including members of armed forces who have laid down their arms and those placed hors de combat by sickness, wounds, detention, or any other cause, shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, without any adverse distinction founded on race, colour, religion or faith, sex, birth or wealth, or any other similar criteria.
I suspect there will be some claim of responsibility, eventually.
