I was emulating the author of whatever article the screenshot is of who decided to add a "so called" in front of friendly fire because they needed to justify the incident as a "not my guys making a mistake, no no no" to protect their ego or something
because it wasn't friendly fire, actually

I personally think it was friendly fire.
