Icloud drive’s files in iphone memory

Hi there! Some files that are stored in icloud drive are also available in iPhone offline, without network access. This means that these files take up space in the iPhone's memory. How to remove these files from the iPhone's memory but leave them in icloud drive?

iPhone 13

Any file in iCloud is also available on your device by design. If your device needs space, it may offload some files to iCloud only. This is an automatic process which you cannot control.
