Описание: Food and water stockpiles, generators, toilets, stacks of mattresses in bunkers deep underground, this Ukrainian steel works was built with the threat of war in mind.

MORE: A sister plant of the Azovstal mill that's the last redoubt of Ukrainian forces in the port city of Mariupol, the Zaporizhstal factory shows how these Stalin-era sites are designed to defy Russia's invasion.

"We can stay in the shelters for a long time," said Zaporizhstal employee Ihor Buhlayev, 20, in his hooded silver safety gear as molten metal flowed and sparked behind him. "I think it will give us the chance to survive."
