I downloaded some videos from my iCloud to my iPhone and watched them. Now I want to delete them from iPhone to empty storage but I don’t want them to be deleted from iCloud. Is it possible? Thank you

If you are using iCloud Photos and you delete the videos on the phone, they will also be removed from iCloud as well. iCloud photos is a syncing service and not archival storage.

Take a look at this.
