R5C4 is the only square in column 4 that can be <2>

Intersection of column 4 with block 8. The value <7> only appears in one or more of squares R7C4, R8C4 and R9C4 of column 4. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 8. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 8 cannot contain this value.

R7C6 - removing <7> from <13478> leaving <1348>

R8C5 - removing <7> from <147> leaving <14>

Intersection of block 4 with column 2. The value <7> only appears in one or more of squares R4C2, R5C2 and R6C2 of block 4. These squares are the ones that intersect with column 2. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of column 2 cannot contain this value.

R7C2 - removing <7> from <14789> leaving <1489>

Squares R2C6<127>, R3C6<27> and R5C6<17> in column 6 form a comprehensive naked triplet. These 3 squares can only contain the 3 possibilities <127>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R1C6 - removing <17> from <137> leaving <3>

R6C6 - removing <7> from <478> leaving <48>

R7C6 - removing <1> from <1348> leaving <348>
