  The History of Anadyr
Anadyr itself was a source of some of the losses, as it accidentally rammed the Rousse, one of the tugboats, while attempting to rescue crews from the sinking auxiliary cruiser Ural.

Anadyr's military days were not over, and in 1921 it was drafted for the third time into the military as naval auxiliary, where it served as part of the government fleet in service against the Whites in the Civil War under the command of Modest Vasil'evich Ivanov.
