"Tehran — Hours after President Trump said Iran appeared to be "standing down" after an intense week of soaring tension, a senior Iranian military commander vowed Thursday that there would be "harsher revenge" taken against the U.S. Mr. Trump indicated on Wednesday that he plans no further military response against Iran in a statement intended to lower tension in the Middle East.
But the general chosen to replace Qassem Soleimani, the top Iranian commander killed in a targeted strike on Mr. Trump's order last week, said Thursday morning that he would follow the same path as his predecessor.
Abdollah Araghi, a member of Iran's Joint Chiefs of Staff, said meanwhile that the country's powerful Revolutionary Guard would "impose a harsher revenge on the enemy in the near future," according to the country's state-run media."

I'll take cited sources over the reporting of some middle man conversation any day of the week.
