R9C5 is the only square in column 5 that can be <2>

Squares R4C6 and R6C6 in column 6 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <28>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R3C6 - removing <8> from <178> leaving <17>

Intersection of row 8 with block 7. The value <3> only appears in one or more of squares R8C1, R8C2 and R8C3 of row 8. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 7. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 7 cannot contain this value.

R7C2 - removing <3> from <137> leaving <17>

R7C3 - removing <3> from <1379> leaving <179>

Intersection of column 1 with block 4. The values <39> only appears in one or more of squares R4C1, R5C1 and R6C1 of column 1. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 4. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 4 cannot contain these values.

R5C3 - removing <9> from <179> leaving <17>

R6C3 - removing <3> from <137> leaving <17>
