According to data from the General Authority for Statistics in Saudi Arabia, the 2.3 percent increase in inflation last month was primarily due to a 6.8 percent rise in housing, water, electricity, gas, and fuel prices; a 2.2 percent rise in food and beverage prices; and a 3.5 percent rise in miscellaneous goods and personal services prices. Meanwhile, transportation prices declined by 1.0 percent.
