For the Operation Seagull involving Abwehr see Operation Seagull (Ireland)


Operation Seagull was a British action during the Second World War to destroy several Nazi-controlled industrial targets including a smelter at Arendal, with the help of Kompani Linge agents from Norway. On February 28, 1943 the KNM Uredd was transporting a 6-man team to Bodø when she hit a German minefield and sank, killing all 34 crewmen and 6 special agents. In 1986, King Olav V unveiled a memorial to those lost aboard the Uredd, located in Grensen.
