Hi dokarpov,

actually there is no option to delete photos form iCloud while keeping them in Photos app.


What I advice to you is to transfer them to a pc or Mac: Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or PC - Apple Support


let me know if this solves the problem for you :)
