Without a note on the length of the flower, Fumaria cannot be IDd to species level. Even with that measurement, Fumaria is extremely difficult to ID to species level from photos.The flower clusters in Fumaria bastardii are 15-25 flowered, so it is not that species.

My feeling is that this is Fumaria muralis by a process of elimination using characters of the other species as given in PlantNET. The Inflorescence has too few flowers for F. bastardii, the lower petal is not spathulate which rules out F. officinalis. The Inflorescence is longer than peduncle so it is not F. capreolata. The bracts are only half as long as the erect fruiting pedicel which eliminates F. indica and leaf shape rules out the remaining species.
