Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Says Iran Has “No Plan” for Executions, Keeps Military Option Open
Caption: Trump Says Iran Has "No Plan" for Executions, Keeps Military Option Open. President Donald Trump says Tehran has "no plan" to execute protesters, but he has not ruled out U.S. military action as Iran faces its most intense crackdown on demonstrations in years. Speaking at the White House, Trump said he was told by "very important sources" that the killing in Iran is slowing and executions are not planned, though he stressed he hopes the information is accurate. The comments come as the U.S. and UK reduce personnel at key military sites in the region, including Qatar's Al-Udeid air base, calling the move a precaution. Iran has also temporarily closed its airspace, while several countries urge their citizens to leave. Protests that began over Iran's collapsing currency have grown into a broader challenge to clerical rule. Rights groups say more than 2,400 protesters have been killed so far. Despite signaling caution, Trump warned the situation remains volatile — and said any regime can fall under enough pressure.
