You can stop a for-loop when a specific condition is fulfilled by using the break statement. The break statement exits the loop immediately when it is executed.

Here's an example:

for i in range(10):
    if i == 5:
        break
    print(i)

In this example, the for-loop will run from 0 to 9. However, when i is equal to 5, the break statement is executed and the loop is exited immediately. The program will output:

0
1
2
3
4

Note that if the condition is not met, the loop will continue until it reaches the end of its iteration.
