Onmiddellijk na vertrek van genoemde haven om 06:00 uur werd het schip door vijandelijke vliegtuigen aangevallen. De aanvallen hielden zonder onderbreking aan tot in de namiddag, toen vlak bij het schip een bom explodeerde, die aan bakboord een gat in de huid veroorzaakte waardoor het schip zonk. Aan boord bevonden zich ongeveer 2800 man troepen en 200 man equipage. Allen slaagden erin de begeleidende Engelse oorlogschepen te bereiken, die de schipbreukelingen in Kreta aan land zetten. Deze ramp vond plaats op 26 april 1941
