Your world-view is wrong. Russia wants to be a stabilizing force in Syria. US, Israel, Saudi Arabia and UAE have thrown literal billions at arming and training jihadist militias to take towns and terrorize the Syrian population. Compare stability and the rule of law in areas retaken by government forces vs those still being held by militants.. Night and day.

Most of them are local people. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syrian_Civil_War https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syrian_Civil_War
