It has been an issue for many months, it has been discussed but no action ever taken. It is a simple workaround that would actually help you be more efficient with the git system anyway:

You just need to download an external git client, connect to your GitLab account, clone the repository to your PC, add your files to the local repository, then push back to the remote repository.

External git clients are applications like Source Tree, GitKraken(My personal choice), and GitHub Desktop. Each will provide tutorials on how to accomplish the thing I said above with the respective application.

There is an option to upload multiple files via WEB IDE in the interface.

If you navigate to the correct directory in the sidebar on the left und select the upload button here, you can add several files. In my example, you can see that I added 8 photos at two different places in my GITLAB project.

I looked and couldn’t find this feature based on your image. Could be that the UI has changed significantly since your post; however, the feature request ticket is still open:

Unless that is more of “how to find it” than the feature existing…

Make a zip of your files and later extract them if you need to use the online platform.

I would recommend pushing them to the repository through a terminal like Ronan Smith said.
