Trump says the killing in Iran has stopped and there are no plans for executions

President Donald Trump says Iran no longer plans to execute detained protesters.

The killing in Iran has stopped, and there are no plans for executions, Trump said at a press conference at the White House, saying he had "received information from credible sources."

If Iran executes protesters after all, "we will find out," he says.

If that happens, we will be very upset.

Trump has previously warned Iran of retaliation if the country begins executing protesters.

Iran's Chief Justice Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei said on Wednesday morning that speedy trials - and executions - await those arrested during the ongoing protests against the regime.
