Kha with stroke (Ӿ ӿ; italics: Ӿ ӿ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script.[1] In Unicode, this letter is called "Ha with stroke".[1] Its form is derived from the Cyrillic letter Kha (Х х Х х).

Kha with stroke is only used in the alphabet of the Nivkh language, where it represents the voiceless glottal approximant /h/, like the pronunciation of ⟨h⟩ in "hat".[2]
