"Ariadne", which had served as a hospital ship during the Norwegian Campaign but disembarked her medical personnel in Tromsø and had her red crosses painted over before departing, was also sunk by the German bombers, with the loss of nine lives. After the attack, the survivors of the two ships spent several hours in their life boats until rescued by the British destroyer . "Arrow" had been despatched after the British evacuation convoy had received a partial emergency radio signal from "Prins Olav" before the latter ship's antenna was knocked out in the German bombing. The 81 survivors, nine of whom were female, of "Prins Olav" and "Ariadne" were landed at Scapa Flow on 14 June.
