If it has been Russians or Iranians taking down the hospital in the middle of an ongoing war, I'd rate the percentage chance of it being a war crime to be higher and reasonably so, but I would not assume it to be a war crime.

As for the article you quote, its title is "Why Bombing a Hospital Is a War Crime", and then nothing in the article demonstrates that it is a war crime.

Instead of demonstrating that it is a war crime it starts off with a statement about how terrible it is (as if accidents, and mistakes in war can't be terrible).

Then it asserts that it was a war crime (As if saying "X is so" proves X.)
