A truly horrible form of friendly fire.

I wonder what the allies would have lost if knowing a ship was ferrying pows it was not sunk.

More POW deaths from sinkings.

Tamahoko Maru – this Japanese passenger-cargo ship was torpedoed by submarine USS Tang on 24 June, carrying Japanese troops and 772 Allied POWs of which 560 died.

The POWs in camps on Japan knew to mark them as allied prisoners to avoid being bombed.

Poor guys on ships had nothing.
Imagine the conditions they were kept in by the sadistic Japs.
