Power Steering Issue !!!

Hello everyone,
Hope everyone doing well. I'm noticing a power steering issue recently. After i cold start the car and drive for 10-15 minutes and turn the wheel left or right, it makes squeaky noise front of the engine or by the wheels. Can someone please advise what could be the issue?

I'm assuming you've already verified that the power steering fluid level in the reservoir is between the fill level indicators?

Yes. No issues with the fluids.

Can you reproduce this while the car is stopped? If you are able, can you take a video of the sound? I had an issue similar to this on an E60 M5 that would squeak a little bit during lock to lock and it turned out to be the power steering pulley. These are known to get pretty brittle with age and tend to break easily.
