Hi,

I have a question about in-text citations, I have read different answers and want to be sure about it, when I paraphrase a text from paper A, I should cite the author, if there is a reference in the text which is the author of the paper B, paper C and so on, should I also cite them in my text?is there any other way besides using "as cited in "? For example, in paper A there are multiple sources that the author refers to like[1],[2], [3] in the part that i want to paraphrase, should i cite them all ?

thank you
