Features of "well masonry". Very questionable design (no normal builder would advise such a scheme, and for good reason). Cracks exactly along the seam. The crack from the corner of the opening. This is all a design error.
The next "mode of operation". Exterior masonry/wall "on attitude" – which means all the negative environmental effects on your brick and mortar. Sharp fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
