S2 Underground put out an interesting video on this flight. His theory is that the Chinese bombers forward deployed to a Russian airbase prior to the exercise.
About 3 days ago in the USA, there was a news story about Russian and Chinese bomber jets patrolling near Alaska within the Alaska Air Defense Identification Zone. They were met by fighters from USA and Canada. We are told that Russia and China are sending a signal that they can "bring it".
I looked for maps showing where exactly this happened. None of the stories I could find show a map, but some of them have a photograph from the sky, such as this one:
Here is where that is:

Zoom out to see that they were in Russia.
