Cinder block wall

I want to close an opening 36” x 84” in a cinder block wall, then nail furring strips to the wall. Is it necessary to anchor the new section to the existing wall? If so, how do I do that? Thanks.

Depending on how it was originally installed, you need to cut out every other block(short blocks) and marry new into the old blocks, weave the new into the old.
