Error while building React Native app for Android - Execution failed for task ':react-native-async-storage_async-storage:compileDebugJavaWithJavac'

I am developing a React Native application on a Mac and trying to build it for Android. However, when I run npm run android to launch the app on my phone, I encounter the following error:

BUILD FAILED in 3s
error Failed to install the app. Command failed with exit code 1: ./gradlew app:installDebug -PreactNativeDevServerPort=8081
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:

I am experiencing the same error for several other libraries, not just the one mentioned above.

Here is my build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "34.0.0"
        minSdkVersion = 21
        compileSdkVersion = 34
        targetSdkVersion = 34
        ndkVersion = "25.1.8937393"
        kotlinVersion = "1.8.0"
    }
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle")
        classpath("com.facebook.react:react-native-gradle-plugin")
        classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin")
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            url("https://maven.google.com")
        }
        google()
        jcenter()
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

apply plugin: "com.facebook.react.rootproject"

I use react-native 0.73.5 and Gradle 8.3.

I tried several solutions to resolve the issue, including trying different libraries, deleting the cache, running a clean on gradlew, and updating the Android SDK to the latest version.

I would appreciate any help in resolving this issue. Thank you!
