Russian cosmonauts Pyotr Dobrov and Anton Shkaplerov carried out the Russian EVA-51 spacecraft wearing Russian spacesuits from Orlan. Both had previously done extravagant activities (EVA, or Spacewalk) and Dobrov wore a blue striped suit while Shakapalrov wore a red striped suit.
EVA's primary tasks today revolve around preparing a new node module, Pritchal, to support future docking by Soyuz and Progress Spacecraft, while installing hardware to allow automatic mating and docking.
To help achieve this, a number of now-unnecessary items have been removed or reused from the Pritchal meeting place and from the International Space Station docking in November 2021.
