Array returning images from previous iteration - php

Question

For some reach my array returns the data numerous times, for different arrays after filtering via a foreach in the second example the post only contains 1 unique link so the rest shouldn't exist at all, it should print simply the data from image_1 here's the PHP code.
$imagecounter = 1;
foreach ($html2->find('.post img') as $source) {
$link = $source->src;
if (strpos($link, 'https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/') !== false) {
$data['image_'.$imagecounter++.''] = $link;
}
}
And here's the array.

Start with an empty $data array.
$data = [];
$imagecounter = 1;
foreach ($html2->find('.post img') as $source) {
$link = $source->src;
if (strpos($link, 'https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/') !== false) {
$data['image_'.$imagecounter++.''] = $link;
}
}
If you need to store multiple sets of $data, then you can store each new $data batch in a parent array.
foreach ($htmls as $html2) {
$data = [];
$imagecounter = 1;
foreach ($html2->find('.post img') as $source) {
$link = $source->src;
if (strpos($link, 'https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/') !== false) {
$data['image_'.$imagecounter++.''] = $link;
}
}
$result[] = $data;
}
