oh guys please.. it happened on both sides, you had to keep your head down because it was total war. The Germans did it, the Japanese did it (I'm sure the Italian did it too at some point), and God knows if the American and British did it as well.
It is a war crime, and when documented or reported it was also treated as such, unless some cases where the population put their hands on the pilots and tore them to bits.
It's called collateral damage.
