Good day to you Nomind04,
In that message it shows that you can cancel the deletion. If you haven’t already, please tap on Manage iCloud Storage and check what options you have for canceling that deletion.
Also, if there are currently photos syncing with iCloud, you can make a copy of those photos and store them on a computer as a backup. Here’s how to do that - Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud
Photos and videos
If you use iCloud Photos, your photos and videos are automatically uploaded to iCloud at full resolution.
Download copies of your photos and videos from your device
• On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos. Then select Download and Keep Originals and import the photos to your computer.
• On your Mac, open the Photos app. Select the photos and videos you want to copy. Choose File > Export.
• On your PC, make sure that you set up iCloud for Windows and turn on iCloud Photos. Open File Explorer. In the Navigation pane, click iCloud Photos, then select the images you want to keep on your PC. Right-click the selection and choose "Always keep on this device." If you use iCloud for Windows 10 or earlier, learn how to download your photos. After the items download, copy them to another folder on your computer. To do this, press and hold the Ctrl key and drag the items to the folder. Include this folder if you back up your computer.
Thanks.
