## NAME
podman kill - Kills one or more containers with a signal
## SYNOPSIS
**podman kill [OPTIONS] CONTAINER [...]**
## DESCRIPTION
The main process inside each container specified will be sent SIGKILL, or any signal specified with option --signal.
## OPTIONS
**--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.
**--signal, s**
Signal to send to the container. For more information on Linux signals, refer to *man signal(7)*.
