How to run a script when a resource group is deleted?

Time:10-13

I would like to run some custom cleanup script in powershell or Az CLI to cleanup some resources that get created in a resource group but do not get cleaned up automatically when the resource group is deleted.

I can run a custom script manually and then delete the resource group, but I was wondering if there was a way to have it setup so a script is called automatically when the resource group is deleted from the Portal from example.
