R1C2 can only be <6>

R9C8 can only be <2>

R9C5 is the only square in row 9 that can be <8>

Squares R1C3, R2C1 and R3C1 in block 1 form a simple naked triplet. These 3 squares all contain the 3 possibilities <248>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the block.

R3C3 - removing <248> from <23489> leaving <39>

Intersection of row 6 with block 5. The value <5> only appears in one or more of squares R6C4, R6C5 and R6C6 of row 6. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 5. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 5 cannot contain this value.

R5C5 - removing <5> from <12345679> leaving <1234679>

R5C6 - removing <5> from <15789> leaving <1789>

Intersection of block 2 with row 3. The value <8> only appears in one or more of squares R3C4, R3C5 and R3C6 of block 2. These squares are the ones that intersect with row 3. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of row 3 cannot contain this value.

R3C1 - removing <8> from <248> leaving <24>

R3C9 - removing <8> from <23478> leaving <2347>

Intersection of block 6 with row 5. The value <8> only appears in one or more of squares R5C7, R5C8 and R5C9 of block 6. These squares are the ones that intersect with row 5. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of row 5 cannot contain this value.

R5C1 - removing <8> from <568> leaving <56>

R5C3 - removing <8> from <3678> leaving <367>

R5C4 - removing <8> from <23468> leaving <2346>

R5C6 - removing <8> from <1789> leaving <179>

R2C1 is the only square in column 1 that can be <8>

R1C8 is the only square in row 1 that can be <8>

R5C9 is the only square in row 5 that can be <8>

R8C8 is the only square in column 8 that can be <5>
