If the normal react can build Progressive Web Apps using html, with the full power of html and css and typescript / JavaScript, and these PWA apps can run on any platform, why would there be a need for react native? Just a question :-)

iOS Safari does not support Web Push notifications. So you are forced to make a native app of some sorts to get push notifs on iOS.
