LONDON — Inflation in Britain fell unexpectedly in August to its lowest level since the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Office for National Statistics said Wednesday that inflation was 6.7% in the year to August, down from 6.8% in July.

The ONS credited the fall to lower hotel and airfare costs and a moderation in food price rises.
