Prevent clickable image in product page, disable product-image link

Question

With Woocommerce and my Storefront child theme, I am trying to prevent the fact that when clicking on a single-product image, it opens a new page with the full size image.

I want the image to be unclickable so nothing happens if the user clicks on the image in the product page.

In my child-theme functions.php, the following code prevents zooming and opening the image in a lightbox, but I want to fully deactivate the linking.

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'remove_hemen_theme_support', 100 );
function remove_hemen_theme_support() {
    remove_theme_support( 'wc-product-gallery-zoom' );
    remove_theme_support( 'wc-product-gallery-lightbox' );
}

How can I achieve this?

Add this filter, it should remove your hyperlink

function e12_remove_product_image_link( $html, $post_id ) {
    return preg_replace( "!<(a|/a).*?>!", '', $html );
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_single_product_image_thumbnail_html', 'e12_remove_product_image_link', 10, 2 );
