Hours earlier, Lloyd Austin, the U.S. defense secretary, acknowledged that a decision last week to delay the delivery of thousands of heavy bombs had been linked to Israel’s threats to invade Rafah, one of Hamas’s last bastions in Gaza. Experts on the U.S.-Israeli relationship say the pause in delivering the munitions shows that the alliance has hit a significant divide, with more ruptures possibly to come amid declining American public support for the Israeli war effort. Details: The suspended arms delivery included 2,000-pound bombs, which are among the most destructive in Israel’s arsenal. In the first six weeks of the war, Israel routinely used such bombs in parts of Gaza that it had designated safe for civilians, a [Times investigation found](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoHt2DP4QGAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMTIvMjEvd29ybGQvbWlkZGxlZWFzdC9pc3JhZWwtZ2F6YS1ib21iLWludmVzdGlnYXRpb24uaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01MSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9tYmVfMjAyNDA1MDkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTIyNzk2Jm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE2NjA3NiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZjODWDxmzZlWwFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD).

Trinity said that its endowment fund also would seek to divest from investments in other Israeli companies in the future. “We fully understand the driving force behind the encampment on our campus, and we are in solidarity with the students in our horror of what is happening in Gaza,” the college said in a statement.
