Apologies don't always have to mean someone did something wrong or were bad. They can be empathetic and understanding. That's my opinion at least.

Eta: Oh! My point: you can be angry at someone even if it's not their fault.
Yes on apologies for empathy. Like if you tell someone that you are sick. They may be like “I’m sorry about that” or like if someone passes away “I’m so sorry for your loss”. Those are examples of empathetic apologies.
