I jut read the headlines, seems I was wrong. The Russians really screwed this one up. It took four hours to storm the building, and half the hostages were wounded (not counting the 200 dead.) Moreover, some of the militants escaped! It seems that the attack was unplanned, and prompted by an explosion which took down part of the wall of the gym.
The militants set up pretty well. They barricaded the windows with desks and such. I'm glad the Russians seem to be just shooting them on the spot, though I'm no believer in the death penalty.
