Cappellini pursued Kabalo and ened her with her deck guns; Kabalo, being also armed, returned fire, but the merchant’s gunfire was ineffectual, and ceased after some time. Cappellini instead scored multiple hits, brought the ship to a halt and set her afire, then fired three torpedoes in succession to finish her off, but all the torpedoes passed beneath the target’s hull without exploding, perhaps due to the rough seas. The submarine then resumed fire with her deck guns, until the target sank. One crewman from Kabalo was killed in the action, the others abandoned ship. After the action was over, Cappellini began searching the area with a small searchlight; after a short time five survivors were found in the water, near a capsized dinghy, and were taken aboard.
