    Hi! I’m guessing you don’t want to individually delete them – it’s much easier to delete multiple images at once in the Classic View. If you go into your media library, the ‘Classic View’ button can be found in the top-right dropdown button saying ‘View’. It has a ‘Bulk Actions’ button that can delete a whole bunch at once that you selected.

    You also have the option to use ‘List View’ with the little icon in the far left of the top bar. I think mass deleting images is easiest with the list view, but you can play around and see what fits you best :)

    This guide will show you all that and more: https://wordpress.com/support/media/2/
