iCloud photo library is designed to sync between devices. Unfortunately you learned the hard way that means if you delete something from the device it also deletes from iCloud and all the other devices.


If you emptied the Recently Deleted folder and did not backup or transfer the photos beforehand, I hate to give you the bad news, but you can’t get them back.
