From the BBC:

Economic activity in the eurozone shrank by 0.2% between April and June -- worse than originally thought -- according to official figures.
The European Union's Eurostat agency had previously said the economy of the region had contracted by 0.1%.

On the other hand, the latest data show Greece, Poland, Portugal and the Czech Republic joining France and Germany in leaving the recession behind.
