How to recover missing photos from iPhone after automatic backup?

• If you have been using iCloud Photos Library before you made the backup, you will have to enable iCloud Photos again, so the photos can come back from iCloud to your iPhone.
• And if you have been syncing photos from a computer to your iPhone, restore the synced photos by syncing the iPhone again with the computer.

Most of my photos are missing from my library. I rebooted my phone, cleared storage and updated my system but still not recovered them. There is nothing I have deleted. My phone did a backup 24 hours prior automatically and now more than half of my photos are gone. Any suggestions?
