Xcode storyboard - RTL icons not works

In my iOS project I have two languages, English and Arabic.

Problem: For Arabic it will switch to RTL, but back icon we should use different icon for RTL.

From the image, I changed direction from Fixed to Both. And I added the separate icons for RTL. Problem is it always takes the LTR icons, I am expecting to pick RTL icons automatically.

enter image description here

Question:

How to load the different images for RTL without writing any condition in ViewController?

Because I have 100+ ViewControllers, so writing if condition in each controller to change the icon is not a best solution.

In Android we can use drawable-ar for separate RTL icons, I need similar solution in iOS.

Update:

My language switch code,

 func switchLanguageAndReloadUI(to direction: UISemanticContentAttribute) {
    // Update the layout direction
    UIView.appearance().semanticContentAttribute = direction
    // Reinitialize the root view controller
    let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
    if let rootVC = storyboard.instantiateInitialViewController() {
        let window = UIApplication.shared.windows.first
        window?.rootViewController = rootVC
        window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

        // Animate the transition to prevent a black screen
        UIView.transition(with: window!, duration: 0.5, options: .transitionCrossDissolve, animations: {}, completion: nil)
    }
}
//for arabic 
self.switchLanguageAndReloadUI(to: .forceRightToLeft) 
//for english 
 self.switchLanguageAndReloadUI(to: .forceLeftToRight)
