Unable to open zip file on iPhone 11

I just downloaded a zip file containing resources for videos editing and when trying to open the file in the files app a pop up appears “The operation couldn’t be completed. Inappropriate file type of format.” Is there any way to solve this issues?

iPhone 11, iOS 16
