Recover permanently deleted photos

If you did not delete these photos, and are struggling to find them, and to learn what happened to them…

Do the photos show when you log into iCloud.com and check your photos there?

If so, force-restart your iPhone, and check again, and confirm you are logged into your iCloud using your Apple ID, and that iCloud Photos is enabled within your iPhone iCloud settings.

It is also possible that your device or your Apple ID was compromised, and somebody else (with access to your device and its passcode, or to your Apple ID and password) permanently deleted the photos.
