ERASING BATCHES OF PHOTOS FROM ICLOUD AT ONCE

Hello, does anyone know how can I erase batches of photos from the icloud at once? I already have a backup and I want to erase 17000 of them at once and I have only been able to erase one by one which is ridiculous. Any advice on how to do this? Thank you!

Selecting photos in www.icloud.com by holding command key and tapping the photos that

are in thousands is time taking , for that you have to set up iCloud photo library see this article https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204264

And delete the photos see this article https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/photos/from-icloud-photos-phtf5e48489c/4.0/mac/10.14

From this article hhttps://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/photos/select-and-deselect-photos-pht40b0be510/3.0/mac/10.13

  • Delete photos and then permanently remove them from the Recently Deleted album: Press Command-Delete, then open the Recently Deleted album. Select the items you want to delete permanently, click Delete, then click OK.

You can select photos using command and A keys on the keyboard https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/photos/select-and-deselect-photos-pht40b0be510/3.0/mac/10.13
