R7C7 - removing <1> from <136> leaving <36>

R8C7 - removing <1> from <136> leaving <36>

Intersection of row 1 with block 2. The value <1> only appears in one or more of squares R1C4, R1C5 and R1C6 of row 1. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 2. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 2 cannot contain this value.

R3C6 - removing <1> from <156> leaving <56>

Intersection of row 3 with block 1. The value <2> only appears in one or more of squares R3C1, R3C2 and R3C3 of row 3. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 1. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 1 cannot contain this value.

R1C2 - removing <2> from <235> leaving <35>
