Yeah, those entries are in the single section. So there is not way to delete them, no?

You can delete the section but not the entry unless you work with your DB or PHP

<p>It is weird that I can delete some entires in the app but some I can't. When selecting specific entry to delete, I don't see the option to delete it. I only have "edit entry" and "view entry". In some other entries I have the "delete..." option as well.
Why is that?</p>

Are entries you can delete channels or structures? And ones you can only view or edit Singles? You can't delete Singles.
