https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ddl-rowsecurity.html says:

  When row security is enabled on a table (with ALTER TABLE ... ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY),
  all normal access to the table for selecting rows or modifying rows must be allowed by
  a row security policy.

So if you only have a policy for SELECT, that's all you are allowed to do.

Yours,

Thank you for clarifying this. I missed that even though it is there in the second paragraph.
 - Mark, out and about.
