Verified by you, sport. Google Severodonetsk, Sloviansk, Lyman for the beginning. Even Mariupol they occupied entirely only in May, virtually destroying the city.Verified by whom? ...
What I agree with is they didn't intend to 'capture' Kiev, they wanted to 'take' it. All evidence about this SMO, especially in the first months, screams about them not expecting to face so fierce resistance and that it would take so long.
Virtually, they expected a somewhat Crimea scenario in more expanded and harsh form.
