They did the standard "I'm Spartacus" routine and then for some reason Ruth just walked forward, I thought originally this was to protect Harry but he was a few yards away and had already demonstrated his ability to use hand-hand combat to disarm Sasha.

I think it's just a weak point in the story to be honest - Ruth needed to die for the final tragic end and thus she did, in a slightly contrived fashion. They could have made Sasha seem a bit more like he was going to try and kill Harry... I think this is part of the problem that some people have with Ruth's death - it does feel a little shoehorned in in some senses - it wasn't essential to resolving the 'threat of the week' or showing us the lengths that terrorists will go to or valiantly trying to save innocent people (as has been the case with most of the other characters who have died, or at least as far as I can remember), even if it was necessary for the message they wanted to get across in the ending.
