The news here report that they didn't dare shoot it down in an urban area. Probably the risks of shooting it down were even greater. The city that was hit is like kilometers away from the Ukrainian border, so there's also very little time to react.

Sounds weak. "We can't shoot anything down hitting buildings close to the border because we only realize there's something when it's too late and need drones/rockets to take three extra turns to give us enough time"  

It is but if the direct action of someone blowing up a drone causes a death then its lawsuit time, so in this day and age we perhaps should not do anything.
