How to deal with small cracks in the facade that appeared after the wind load?

In the basement of the house after a long thunderstorm (wind 50-80 km/h with heavy rain) there are thin long cracks (a lot). Visible only when the wall dries out after the rain.

Facade: the wall, brick with cement coating, it has 10 cm of foam 035, glue Ceresit 2 in 1, a quality mesh, 4 dowels per m2. Without primer, on top of a thin layer of plaster Ceresit CT 137. Is it because of the lack of primer? And what to expect now? Would it help to do another 2-3mm reinforcing layer and just paint?
