## 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

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)*.
