How do I delete a versioned bucket in AWS S3 using the CLI?

Question

I have tried both s3cmd:

$ s3cmd -r -f -v del s3://my-versioned-bucket/

And the AWS CLI:

$ aws s3 rm s3://my-v

You can delete all the objects in the versioned s3 bucket. But I don't know how to delete specific objects.

$ aws s3api delete-objects \
      --bucket  \
      --delete "$(aws s3api list-object-versions \
      --bucket  | \
      jq '{Objects: [.Versions[] | {Key:.Key, VersionId : .VersionId}], Quiet: false}')"

Alternatively without jq:

$ aws s3api delete-objects \
    --bucket ${bucket_name} \
    --delete "$(aws s3api list-object-versions \
    --bucket "${bucket_name}" \
    --output=json \
    --query='{Objects: Versions[].{Key:Key,VersionId:VersionId}}')"
