I turned off synchronization with iCloud, deleted all the photos, cleared the “recently deleted” folder, but the storage space was not freed up. I tried rebooting the iPhone but there was no result.
I'm using the latest version of iOS on iPhone 11.

Try and Force Restart your iPhone EXACTLY as shown below and see whether that resolves the issue:

Have you tried deleting apps? Some apps can take up more space than others, therefore causing your storage capacity to be full. If you're too poor (such as I) you can just buy a storage extender instead of buying a completely new phone with overpriced storage.
Photos took up a lot of space on my iPhone. I decided to buy an iCloud subscription and transfer all the photos there (more than 50 GB of them). After I transferred all the photos and videos, I turned off synchronization with iCloud and deleted all the photos from the iPhone. I cleared the “recently deleted” folder, but in the settings it says that photos are still taking up space (30 GB +)
Unfortunately, this didn't help. In settings -> storage it still shows that the photos take up more than 30 GB.
My iPhone 11's storage isn't clearing even after deleting files
