Circassians in Libya (Adyghe: Либием ис Адыгэхэр, romanized: Libiyem yis Adıgəxər) refers to the Circassian diaspora settled in Libya, numbering about 30,000 today.

[5] The Circassians in Kosovo moved to the Republic of Adygea in 1998 and Muammar Gaddafi sent support and donations to the village.

Gaddafi, according to his own words, showed a deep respect for the Circassians and their historical suffering.

[6] In March 2011, Muammar Gaddafi delegated a diplomat to the Jordanian capital of Amman to meet Circassians in Jordan and get their support.
