SwiftUI - Drag and drop circles

I'm trying to create circles that can be dragged and dropped.

I am able to get it to work with just the first circle, however, anything after the first doesn't work.

Expected behaviour: Circle follows my cursor while dragging and lands on final position when drag ends

Actual behaviour: Circle follows my cursor's horizontal position, but not vertical position (vertical position is always significantly below my cursor)

ContentView.swift

import SwiftUI

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        VStack(alignment: .center) {
            ForEach(0..<5) { _ in
                DraggableCircles()
            }
        }
    }
}

struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}

struct DraggableCircles: View {
    @State var dragAmount: CGPoint = CGPoint.zero

        var body: some View {
            Circle().fill(Color.red)
            .frame(width: 50, height: 50)
                .gesture(
                    DragGesture(coordinateSpace: .global).onChanged {action in
                        let location = action.location
                        let newWidth = location.x
                        let newHeight = location.y
                        let size = CGPoint(x: newWidth, y: newHeight)
                        self.dragAmount = size
                    }.onEnded{action in
                        let location = action.location
                        let newWidth = location.x
                        let newHeight = location.y
                        let size = CGPoint(x: newWidth, y: newHeight)
                        self.dragAmount = size
                    }
                )
                .position(x: dragAmount.x, y: dragAmount.y)
        }
        
    }

You have to add drag value to the last location. The correct calculation is here.

struct DraggableCircles: View {
    
    @State private var location: CGPoint = CGPoint(x: 50, y: 50)
    @GestureState private var startLocation: CGPoint? = nil
    
    var body: some View {
        
        // Here is create DragGesture and handel jump when you again start the dragging/
        let dragGesture = DragGesture()
            .onChanged { value in
                var newLocation = startLocation ?? location
                newLocation.x += value.translation.width
                newLocation.y += value.translation.height
                self.location = newLocation
            }.updating($startLocation) { (value, startLocation, transaction) in
                startLocation = startLocation ?? location
            }
        
        return Circle().fill(Color.red)
            .frame(width: 50, height: 50)
            .position(location)
            .gesture(dragGesture)
    }
}
