 ENHANCEMENTS:
 
 - `prevent_destroy` arguments in the `lifecycle` block for managed resources can now use references to other symbols in the same module, such as to a module's input variables. ([#3474](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/issues/3474), [#3507](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/issues/3507))
+- New `lifecycle` meta-argument `destroy` for altering resource destruction behavior. When set to `false` OpenTofu will not retain resources when they are planned for destruction. ([#3409](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/pull/3409))
 - OpenTofu now uses the `BROWSER` environment variable when launching a web browser on Unix platforms, as long as it's set to a single command that can accept a URL to open as its first and only argument. ([#3456](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/issues/3456))
