Kutlu Adalı (1935 in Nicosia – July 6, 1996) was a Turkish Cypriot journalist, poet, socio-political researcher, and peace advocate.
In the years leading to his assassination, Kutlu Adali was a well-respected journalist working for the left-wing Yeni Düzen newspaper in Nicosia, writing daily in his regular column From Blue Cyprus.
