    This is a classic error that the Russians of all people should know
    better than to make. A steel works, especially one that has been shelled
    and bombed is a terrible place to capture. The Ukranians have had weeks
    to plant booby traps and find the defensive points as well as build
    redoubts. The Russians whould know better as that is how they halted the Germans in Stalingrad. A force which has specialised in open war on the
    Steppes is not well placed to fight from house to house in a wrecked
    city where the defenders have grown up. See Von Paulus and 6th Army.
    Putin is making precisely the same errors that Hitler did by denying his
    army freedom to manoeuvre. Of course not having an efficient logistics
    system doesnt exactly help.
