## NAME
podman\-kill - Kill the main process in one or more containers
## SYNOPSIS
**podman kill** [*options*] [*container* ...]
**podman container kill** [*options*] [*container* ...]
## DESCRIPTION
The main process inside each container specified will be sent SIGKILL, or any signal specified with option --signal.
## OPTIONS
#### **--all**, **-a**
Signal all running and paused containers.
@@option cidfile.read
#### **--latest**, **-l**
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)
