Delete a specific attachment

I want to delete the attachment called formulier-voor-herroeping from a site.

Let's first retrieve its ID:

wp post list --post_type="attachment" --name="formulier-voor-herroeping" --field=ID

And now use this to delete it. The flag --force is needed, as there is no trash repository for attachments:

wp post list --post_type="attachment" --name="formulier-voor-herroeping" --field=ID | xargs -n1 wp post delete --force

Results: Both the post and the actual file are deleted.
