Terminating AWS EC2 instance fails - the instance is still running

it seems that I have a technical issue regarding terminating the EC2 instance.

When I terminate it, a new instance is being created with the same name.

I terminate an EC2 instance. After a refresh, another instance was running so I started to terminate it. After one another refresh of the page, a new instance started to run.

Do you maybe have any tips regarding this?

This instance seems to be a part of the autoscaling group which is continuously trying to meet the minimum capacity requirements. Delete that Autoscaling group first and then stop the instance or update Min capacity in autoscaling group to 0 it will be automatically terminated.
