Moreover, this was the lowest inflation rate since June 2024, when prices had risen 2.6 percent.

Transport expenses continued to decline sharply by 7.2 percent annually, and clothing and footwear prices were 1.6 percent cheaper. Meanwhile, prices for food and non-alcoholic beverages grew at a slightly faster pace of 5.5 percent compared to 5.3 percent a month ago.
