Hi, They're not likely put there by Apple, unless you checked some boxes. In Settings, iCloud, Photos, you can check on if you have the iCloud Photo Library enabled. If so, then you'll need to be careful as deleting a photo from the iPhone will delete it from every device you use iCloud Photo Library on. An easy way of saving space when iCloud Photo Library is enabled is to tell your iPhone to "Optimize iPhone Storage". When this is enabled, only low resolution copies of your photos are kept on the iPhone with the higher resolution version stored up in iCloud. This system is pretty slick. I have over 45,000 photos in my library, and they are all visible on my iPhone even though there's no possible way that the over 180 GB library would normally fit on my iPhone.
If you're not using the iCloud Photo Library, then simply remove the photos when you're in the Photos app. Later...
