Even before the ship reached Palestine's territorial waters, British destroyers surrounded it. Bill Bernstein, the Exodus's second officer and a Jew, was clubbed to death trying to prevent a British soldier from entering the wheelhouse on the ship. The remaining passengers were eventually transferred to DP camps in Germany.
