iCloud is designed to sync content, like photos, between multiple devices using the same ID with the same iCloud feature turned on. This also means if you delete it on one device it is removed from iCloud and all other devices as well. Read more about it at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204247


“Before you delete anything, make sure that you back up the photos and videos that you still want. When you use iCloud Photos and delete a photo or video on one device, it's also deleted on all other devices where you're signed in with the same Apple ID.”
