Delete read-only contacts on iPhone

hi,


I have an issue since i restored my iPhone12 mini (with the latest IOS).


each contact I'm adding using my iPhone cannot be deleted using the iPhone, i get a message that says that it is read only and cannot be deleted.

however, I can delete them using the iCloud website


how can I fix that?
