Moreover, this was the highest inflation rate since June 2025, when prices rose 4.1 percent.

Housing and utility costs grew 4.8 percent compared to last year, and transport charges were 3.5 percent more expensive. Prices for food and non-alcoholic beverages increased 1.9 percent, while clothing and footwear prices dropped 2.8 percent.

On a monthly basis, consumer prices moved up 0.6 percent after rising 1.1 percent in March.
