R8C2 can only be <4>

R5C8 is the only square in row 5 that can be <8>

R5C5 is the only square in row 5 that can be <2>

R6C1 is the only square in column 1 that can be <8>

R6C9 is the only square in column 9 that can be <6>

R6C4 is the only square in block 5 that can be <9>

Squares R4C2 and R4C9 in row 4 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <12>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the row.

R4C3 - removing <12> from <1259> leaving <59>

Squares R2C3 and R3C3 in column 3 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <78>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R7C3 - removing <7> from <12579> leaving <1259>

R8C3 - removing <7> from <679> leaving <69>

R9C3 - removing <7> from <12567> leaving <1256>

Squares R4C1 and R4C3 in block 4 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <59>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the block.

R6C3 - removing <5> from <125> leaving <12>

Intersection of row 2 with block 3. The values <23> only appears in one or more of squares R2C7, R2C8 and R2C9 of row 2. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 3. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 3 cannot contain these values.
