Would an accident on the part of Russia still lead to invocation of Article 5 in the Ukraine conflict?

Apparently the target was a Ukraine train station near the border, but missiles went astray

If it was an accident, Moscow should apologise to prevent ANY escalation. It's the decent thing to do but we're dealing with Putin and his reality.
A deliberate attack on the other hand invokes article 5.

They can invoke article 4 first.
Doing some reading it “May” be a Ukrainian air defence missile chasing a Russian missile.

'Important to establish facts' - Nato chief
Nato chief Jens Stoltenberg tweets that he spoke to Polish President Andrzej Duda about the explosion.
"I offered my condolences for the loss of life. Nato is monitoring the situation and Allies are closely consulting. Important that all facts are established," he says.

I think they'e unlikely to until / unless they manage to verify this. Which is sort of my point. Second person to post on here unverified reports as fact.
