How do I recover deleted WhatsApp backup on iPhone?

So i was using my android phone while my iPhone was not working and was waiting for the battery for the iPhone 13 to be available. I gave it in for service and got a loaner iPhone then took my what’s app back up from my android which had only a month or so of chat back up because rest was on the i cloud then i got the data from my android then was waiting for the iCloud to restore the remaining but it did not so went to the what’s app settings and clicked on back up but then the previous back up from the iCloud went off and the only 1 month data got replaced with it.

CAN I GET IT BACK ?

That is a good question to ask Whatsapp support.

But my guess is the new backup overwritten the previous backup, so no.
