#1 Putin’s announcement that they are going to avoid storming Azovstal probably reflects that they can’t afford to lose further manpower and need those units for the Donbas offensive.

Plus the fact that storming an underground fortress is a bad idea. Fighting a war is about managing your resources, which include time and people. Pissing either one away for no gain is both foolish and fatal.
