释义 |
SS Verona was an Italian passenger steamer, built in 1908 by Workman, Clark and Company in Belfast, and operated by the Navigazione Generale Italiana, of Genoa. {{SS|Ancona||6}} was her sister ship. On 11 May 1918, the ship left Messina for Tripoli with on board some 3,000 soldiers, most of them deserters which were sent to a detention camp in the Italian colony of Libya. She was torpedoed by German submarine {{SMU|UC-52||2}}, under the command of Kapitänleutnant Hellmuth von Doemming off Cape Peloro at {{coord|37|04|N|16|19|E|display=title,inline}}. The ship sank within 25 minutes, but many soldiers were saved because land was relatively close and several ships came to their rescue. Still around 880 lives were lost.
