The crack is obvious and looks like half of the brick gonna to fall off but I try knock / pull the broken brick, it+doesn't+move.

Normally I will take photo but this round forgot. After removing the wall titles, I'm going to plaster and paint it + install windows. For external wall damage, I'm lost.
