I believe that the US publicly apologised for having mislabeled hideouts as "hospitals".

I'm sure you "believe" that, but that does not make it so.
Here in the world where we have references to our claims, the Russians have been bombing hundreds of hospitals, schools and mosques in Syria (as a war strategy), and lied about it verifiably and consistently, ever since they came to help Assad in 2015.
This is well documented on the Wiki page for it, with links to many reports from organizations like the ICRC (Red Cross) and MSF (Doctors Without Borders) and the UN. Russia even bombed hospitals that the UN had given them coordinates to as being health facilities, and suppressed UN investigations into these war crimes.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian%E2%80%93Syrian_hospital_bombing_campaignThe NYT article is another report about these hospital bombings by the Russian Air Force, but this time with an extraordinary amount of evidence presented. Just read the report and listen to the Russian pilots before and after they strike their target and be amazed as to how detailed the NYT has researched this issue :

Back on topic for this thread :
Trump's threats of war crimes (strikes against Iranian cultural sites) and war-mongering (threatening FAST and HARD retaliations against Iran) is having real deadly consequences as Iran military, on critical alert, mistakenly shot down a civilian airliner.
<snip, don't go off-topic after saying 'back on topic', and take it to the Syria thread. While at it you might want to discuss the OPCW whistleblower scandal, but probably not; N.>
