📉🇮🇶 Iraq’s Inflation Cools Down — Modest Relief for Households 🇮🇶📉
✨ Key Highlights (English)
1️⃣ Inflation Eases — Both Monthly and Annually
The Ministry of Planning announced that during October 2025, Iraq saw a 0.3% drop in monthly inflation compared to September. In addition, annual inflation fell by 0.5% compared to October 2024.
2️⃣ Cheaper Food and Drinks — A Big Driver of the Drop
Prices for food and non-alcoholic beverages declined by 0.5%, with fish prices down 4.9% and fruit down 2.4% — two major contributors to the overall inflation decrease.
3️⃣ Housing Costs Slightly Down Too
The housing sector saw a 1% decrease, offering a bit of breathing room for families paying rent or mortgages. Some other sectors saw little change; others fluctuated marginally.
💡 What This Could Mean for Everyday Iraqis
Lower food and housing prices could make daily life a bit more affordable.
If the trend continues, households might begin to feel real relief — especially low-income families.
Still, with only modest declines in some sectors, many may continue to feel economic pressures until more lasting improvements are seen.
