Squares R3C5 and R3C6 in row 3 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <14>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the row.

R3C2 - removing <1> from <1679> leaving <679>

R3C9 - removing <1> from <178> leaving <78>

Squares R3C5 and R3C6 in block 2 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <14>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the block.

R1C6 - removing <1> from <135> leaving <35>

R2C5 - removing <1> from <135> leaving <35>

Intersection of row 7 with block 8. The value <2> only appears in one or more of squares R7C4, R7C5 and R7C6 of row 7. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 8. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 8 cannot contain this value.

R8C5 - removing <2> from <1257> leaving <157>

R9C6 - removing <2> from <12> leaving <1>
