Looking at Grozny now I see it has been rebuilt to good standards,But what type of bombing happened to make it look like this back then during the wars? It was so isolated and bombed out. Also how long did rebuilding take?

The Grozny War.
Same tactics the Russian army is using now. Specifically the TOS-1 thermobaric rocket launcher (Russians say flamethrower) as the chechens didn’t have stand off weapons or artillery.
Same shit that made Gaza, Damascus, Aleppo and Mariupol look like this. War, lots of missiles artillery and explosives
I just did a piece on the events leading up to the Second chechen War, where I cover a little of the first war. If you want a link, let me know. Most of the Chechen population had relatives outside grozny. Once it was clear, the Chechens were going to attempt to hold Grozny, much of the civilian population went to the mountains with relatives.
The Russians tried to take Grozny once but failed. So instead of re-assessing their tactics they just carpet bombed the entire city into dust.
Russians still have not learned how to take an urban center without massive casualties – just look at Bahkmut, Avdiivka, Mariupol, etc.
Russians
That last picture is cold 😂
Ima go with death and destruction, although not an expert on the subject
[There were people there, just had to dig them up from the mass-graves Russia made](https://www.reddit.com/r/Documentaries/comments/tdbo1l/the_betrayed_1995_first_chechen_war_russian_tanks/)
They had plenty of ammo stored up then that they probably wish now was still in inventory. That much damage takes a lot of boom.
