->downloads.

-> check if it says iCloud, then the problem happens because it’s deleting tabs after it uploads them. To fix that Click on iCloud and change it to my iPhone. Then below that, it asks “Delete downloaded items” and choose “manually. “ This seems to fix the problem for many users.

 

Also make sure that under Safari, Tabs section that you choose to close them manually.
