How can I perform a bulk delete on issues that have the same status in a project in Jira?

I have a project called test_pro with over 300 issues. Nearly 200 of them have a status Ready To Release, and I want to remove all those issues from my project. How can I perform a bulk delete using the status Ready To Release and the project name? Is it even possible?

    yes it is possible, please read the following steps:

    1. Search for the issues with Ready To Release status using JQL query:

      project = "test_pro" AND status = "Ready To Release"

    2. Tools > Bulk Change > Select All > Delete Issues > Confirm

    For more information, please refer the documentation.

    Always backup JIRA data before we try, in case we can roll back.
