Hello,

Yes, you can delete individual messages in a conversation, but it's not the
most intuitive thing to do with Voiceover.
Here is what I do:

1. Find the message you want to delete.
2. Double tap and hold on the right side of the screen, then after the
triple tone swipe across to the left side of the screen without lifting your
finger between the double tap and hold and the swipe.
3. You should hear Voiceover say "Forward, menu item". 
4. Swipe left once and you are on delete, Voiceover will say "Delete, menu
item". 
5. Double tap on delete, you will be prompted "Delete message, it cannot be
undone", then you have to confirm by double tapping another delete button.
If you swipe left once more when you get to delete, you find a third option
which is "Copy".
This could definitely use a bit of improvement, Facebook should really just
implement the action rotor for deleting, forwarding, copying etc.


Regards,
Sieghard

I don't see a way to do it from the phone itself either.

Do not see a way to do this with a BT keyboard.  Is there something I am
missing?
