This mitigated previous seasonal spikes in the prices of core food items, fresh vegetables, and fruits. Conversely, non-food inflation recorded a slight increase during June, driven primarily by rising prices in the services group.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"5\">Decline in Monthly Inflation<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"6\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\">The monthly urban headline inflation rate recorded <b data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"51\">-0.4%<\/b> during June 2026, compared to <b data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"87\">-0.1%<\/b> in June 2025 and <b data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"110\">1.6%<\/b> in May 2026.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\">The CBE attributed this monthly decline to falling food prices. Both core food inflation and fresh vegetables and fruits inflation recorded rates below their historical averages. This was driven by lower prices for poultry, table eggs, and fresh vegetables, which outweighed the impact of higher non-food inflation resulting from rent increases and seasonal spikes in Hajj and Umrah trip prices.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"7\">Core Inflation<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"8\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\">The annual core inflation rate increased to <b data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"44\">14.3%<\/b> in June 2026, up from <b data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"72\">13.8%<\/b> in May, due to the unfavorable base year effect.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\">Meanwhile, the monthly core inflation rate slowed to <b data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"53\">0.3%<\/b> in June, compared to <b data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"79\">-0.2%<\/b> in June 2025 and <b data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"102\">1.6%<\/b> in May 2026. The CBE noted that the rise in monthly core inflation was due to the contribution of the services group, which exceeded the impact of declining core food prices.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"9\">Inflation Decline in Rural Areas and Nationwide<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"10\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\">The annual headline inflation rate in rural areas declined to <b data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"62\">10.1%<\/b> in June 2026, compared to <b data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"94\">11.4%<\/b> in May.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\">The annual headline inflation rate for the entire republic, which reflects the average of urban and rural inflation, also slowed to <b data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"132\">12.2%<\/b>, down from <b data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"149\">13%<\/b> in May.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"11\">Drop in Food Prices<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"12\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\">The monthly food inflation rate recorded <b data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"41\">-3.2%<\/b> in June 2026, contributing approximately <b data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"88\">-1.19<\/b> percentage points to the monthly headline inflation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\">This decline was driven by an <b data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"30\">8.7%<\/b> drop in the fresh vegetables and fruits group, contributing <b data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"95\">-0.61<\/b> percentage points to monthly inflation. This reflects the seasonal decline in vegetable prices, which fell by <b data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"211\">14.2%<\/b>, while fresh fruit prices rose slightly by <b data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"260\">1.3%<\/b>, aligning with regular seasonal patterns.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\">Core food prices also dropped by <b data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"33\">-2.1%<\/b> during June, contributing <b data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"65\">-0.58<\/b> percentage points to monthly inflation, marking the largest monthly decline since May 2024. The CBE noted this deviated from the usual seasonal pattern due to significant drops in the prices of poultry (<b data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"274\">-12.5%<\/b>) and table eggs (<b data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"298\">-10.3%<\/b>).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"13\">Rise in Services Prices<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"14\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\">In contrast, the monthly non-food inflation rate recorded <b data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"58\">1.3%<\/b> during June, contributing <b data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"89\">0.79<\/b> percentage points to monthly inflation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\">Prices in the services group rose by <b data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"37\">2.1%<\/b> in June, contributing <b data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"64\">0.62<\/b> percentage points.
