Deleting Multiple Images in imessage

In iOS12 you used to be able to easily select multiple images in imessage to delete (hit "i" then go to photos, hold down...more, select all the photos you wanted to, hit delete), with iOS13 it looks like you have to select each picture, then hit delete, confirm delete attachment. Not only that you can only do this for one picture at a time, further attempts to select and delete pictures doesn't work. You have to leave the info screen, go back to the chat, rehit "i" and start all over. Is there a way to select and delete multiple images at one time with the new iOS?

Yes it does. If you tap and hold a photo in a text conversation, a box opens with More, which when you tap More circles appear on the left of every comment and photo in that message. Tap the circles and then the trash can on the bottom left corner.
