Gallery duplicating images

Sometimes when I open my gallery I find a whole lot of old photos, all duplicated under one day. So I have photos from 2020,2021 etc all showing under the 24th April 2024, for example. If I use the "delete duplicates" function in the gallery, it looks like it's deleting the old pictures rather than the new duplicate, as I still have lots of old pictures all under the 24th April 2024. Is this happening to anybody else? Could it be the One Drive sync or WhatsApp backup? Haven't had this issue with any other phone.

Hit the 3 dots, hit select,then shrink all your photos to minimum and just run your finger along the rows, all will be ticked then hit delete.

This is what I have to do. But I still rather not have to do this as nearly 500 images are duplicated once a week. It's just so annoying and there's not an answer anywhere to resolve this issue.

Has there still been no solution? I bought my new Samsung, but was so annoyed when this kept happening and can't figure out why. I've stopped syncing with the cloud, Google, and WhatsApp, yet it happens every other day!
