The Texel Disaster took place off the Dutch coast on the night of 31 August 1940 and involved the sinking of two Royal Navy destroyers, and damage to a third and a light cruiser. The disaster was caused by a destroyer flotilla running into an unmarked minefield, which caused serious damage to one vessel; two more destroyers were sunk going to the aid of the first, and a light cruiser sent as an escort was slightly damaged by a mine on the return journey. In all, the disaster caused approximately 300 deaths, with a further 100 men injured or taken prisoner of war.

  • L'incidente di Texel avvenne al largo dei Paesi Bassi la notte del 31 agosto 1940 e causò l'affondamento di due cacciatorpediniere della Royal Navy e il danneggiamento di un terzo cacciatorpediniere e di un incrociatore leggero. L'incidente fu causato da una flottiglia di cacciatorpediniere che s'imbatté in un campo minato non segnalato che danneggiò gravemente un'imbarcazione; altre due navi dello stesso tipo che accorsero in suo aiuto affondarono, e un incrociatore leggero di scorta fu lievemente danneggiato da una mina durante il viaggio di ritorno. In tutto, l'incidente costò la vita a 300 persone, con altre 100 perdite tra feriti e prigionieri. (it)
  • テセルの惨事(英:Texel Disaster)は、1940年8月31日の夜にオランダのテセル島沖でイギリス海軍の2隻の駆逐艦が沈没し、軽巡洋艦1隻と駆逐艦1隻が損傷を負った事件である。 敷設途中の無標識の機雷原に駆逐艦隊が入り込んだところで艦隊の駆逐艦1隻が大きな損傷を負い、この艦を救助に向かった僚艦のうちの2隻が沈没し、援護に行った軽巡洋艦1隻が帰路で同じように機雷で軽い被害を受けた。この事件では、死者が約300名でたほか、100名が負傷あるいは捕虜となった。 (ja)
