Force my iPhone to shutdown without touching the screen

accessory not supported popup is stuck on my screen, keeping me from using anything on my screen. I am not even able to restart my phone or get rid of the popup. how do I get rid of it?

I have an iPhone XR

edit: Siri does not work, it requires my passcode which I can't enter because I cannot use my screen.
