Remove parts of image from multiple images
I am not cropping, I am removing specific parts of images (let's say a triangle) i.e. turning it transparent. The specific parts needs to be removed are same for all images.
I could do it manually for each image, but there are just too many of them (was a video converted to frames)

Is that area static, if it varies then I think not possible.
Nothing easy in Gimp I can think of to batch process a set of frames. You will need a script/plugin writing.
As a possibility, using ImageMagick and a couple of commands.
overlay each frame with a mask, choose a colour that does not normally occur in the frames, say magenta
magick composite area.png image.000075.jpg out-xxx.png
Make that overlay colour transparent
magick out-xxx.png -fuzz 40% -transparent magenta result-xxx.png
Of course that is just for a single frame, those need wrapping in a batch/bash script depending on OS.
Best place to ask the question is https://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/ in the Users section
