Deleting photos from iPhone without deleting from iCloud

I want to delete photos from my iPhone 14, but I'm terrified that I'll loose hundreds of photos and videos of my grandkids. How can I start fresh on my phone while still being able to access the pictures in iCloud?


Thank you!

Transfer these Photos:

You need to extract these photos from your iPhone to another storage location --preferably to a Mac or a PC.
