On June 23, 1941 the SS Refah was sunk by an unknown sub (possibly Italian) near Cyprus while en route to Port Said, Egypt. The Refah was carrying Turkish military cadets and officers. It resulted in 168 military deaths (167 Turkish, and one British.

Jewish dead - Netherlands

In the article the pre-war Jewish population in the Netherlands is given as 115.000. I believe this is too low; depending on different German (Nazi) definitions of "Jew", it should be 140.000 - 160.000.

Do you have a reliable source that we can verify? We can't change the figure from the Columbia Guide to the Holocaust but we could add a note that has a different figure.--Woogie10w (talk) 23:38, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
