Renowned hacker Inti De Ceukelaire informed facebook of this breach in 2017, but FB just sat on it for a year and did nothing, ultimately claiming it was scraped from publicly available data at the time.
So while we do not know and can only assume deleted data is merely indicated by a flag and not really deleted, this exploit does not include data from closed/deleted accounts.
FB doesn't allow user access to/control of/deletion of shadow account data, which is in violation of the GDPR.
