This headline is misleading.

Russian air defense downed the drone, which was targeted on something else entirely, in an area crowded with civilians.

Ukraine has demonstrably and verifiably taken significant effort to maintain good target discrimination; there is zero possible utility for them to intentionally target civilians - and I do mean civilians specifically, not just “civilian targets” which may or may not have a dual military / military production support use.

Ukraine is actively bombing civilian targets lately such as Russian webshop warehouses. The Reuters article does not state the drone was intercepted as far as I can read.

"dual-purpose" a nice excuse to bomb all civilian targets.

Wildberries sales military goods. Not dual use. Military. Explicitly advertised "for the special military operation".

You mean firearms? Weapons? Ammunition?

No they do not. They sell the same stuff you can get on Amazon and any other webshop.

You are suggesting that selling tacticool camo outfits makes it a military target.
