You can delete them directly form the DB if you have access to it.

@engelgabriel I use on Rocket.Chat cloud (https://vinhlong.rocket.chat). How do I can access to Database.
Thank you so much.

I would very much like to see this feature implemented! we have hundreds of notifications per day to an observance channel and its a pain to delete them all one by one...

I second this, this feature is absolutely essential for us. We're currently deploying Rocket.Chat in our university environment and it's gaining momentum. Having this feature would greatly support the deployment.

We used the rest api for this purpose: https://rocket.chat/docs/developer-guides/rest-api/channels/cleanhistory

Thanks for the link! However, what I meant was that this feature should also be available to moderators of private channels and administrators and members of private conversations from within the UI. Sorry, I should've phrased that more clearly in my earlier post.
