First as far as you are using an android phone whatsapp always saves the images in a status once viewed.

voice notes, status and even thumbnails of images are saved on your device to make it easier for you to view again without needing to download again. then after 24hrs it automatically deletes.

now those files are usually hidden in the data folder where you have something like com.whatsapp inside their is another folder called media and inside media you have videos, status etc.

now so inside status every status you have is saved their temporaly untill 24hrs then it disapears.

normal file explorer on android is set to not show or download those images in status.

any folder saved with a dot eg .status is exempted from being shown,

Now your issue will be coming from your file manager like es file explorer and others.

so go to your file manager that is not from the phone or googles files and delete or find a way to stop it from automatically downloading any images.

Stop oversimplifying people's problems.
If you don't have a solution then just scroll.
Imagine having to delete 200 images and 70 videos everyday.
Don't forget that these images and videos are mixed with your own images which you have to take time to select, so as not to delete relevant images along with the 200 rubbish.

It's not that simple
