The Battle of Abinsk was a significant military engagement during the Russo-Circassian War, fought in 1834 between the combined forces of Circassian leaders Tuquzhuqo Kizbech and Hawduqo Mansur against the Russian Empire.

Meanwhile 700 Circassian cavalries led by Hawduqo Mansur and Tuquzhuqo Kizbech, prepared an ambush in a nearby forest near the Russians route.

The Circassians also captured seven supply wagons filled with vital resources such as forage and munitions after severe fighting further hindering Russian operations in the region.

Kizbech's ability to rally his warriors and exploit the terrain against a larger, more heavily armed Russian force became a symbol of Circassian resistance.

[citation needed] Tuquzhuqo Kizbech's victory, despite the overwhelming odds, bolstered the morale of the Circassian resistance and earned him a place as one of the key military figures of the conflict.
