See the following from Sync photos to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch in iTunes - Apple Support and note that if the originals are gone you may have to use the link in the last line: Delete photos and video synced from iTunes when you can’t access the originals - Apple Support

Delete synced photos

  1. In iTunes, locate and click on your device.
  2. Click Photos.
  3. Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
  4. Click Apply.

Learn how to delete photos and video synced from iTunes when you can't access the originals.
