The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

Ge with stroke (Ғ ғ, italics: Ғ ғ) is a Cyrillic letter which represents the letter Г with a horizontal stroke. It is used in Bashkir, Kazakh Cyrillic and Uzbek Cyrillic alphabets where it represents a voiced uvular fricative /ʁ/. Despite having a similar shape, it is not related to the F of the Latin alphabet. In Kazakh, this letter may also represent the voiced velar fricative /ɣ/. In the Uzbek Latin alphabet, this letter corresponds to Gʻ.

The letter is also used in Bashkir, Tajik, Karakalpak, Shor, Siberian Tatar and Nivkh languages, and formerly in Azerbaijani. It is similar to the letter Ğ found in Turkish and Latin Azerbaijani alphabets.

Unicode renders this letter as "ghe with stroke". It is possible that this may have been inspired by the Greek digamma.
