Reddit consists of sub-communities that cover a focused topic. This paper provides a list of relevant subreddits for the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian crisis. We perform an exhaustive subreddit exploration using keyword search and shortlist 12 subreddits as potential candidates that contain nominal discourse related to the crisis. These subreddits contain over 300,000 posts and 8 million comments collectively. We provide an additional categorization of content into two categories, "R-U Conflict", and "Military Related", based on their primary focus. We further perform content characterization of those subreddits. The results show a surge of posts and comments soon after Russia launched the invasion. "Military Related" posts are more likely to receive more replies than "R-U Conflict" posts. Our textual analysis shows an apparent preference for the Pro-Ukraine stance in "R-U Conflict", while "Military Related" retain a neutral stance.
