Mazda 2 - various noises when turning wheel

My Mazda 2 makes different noises when turning the steering wheel.

When I turn it left, the steering wheel makes a loud creaking noise. This happens when I am moving and at a standstill. When I turn it right and when the car is moving, there is a squeaking/chirping noise coming from outside of the car.

Could this be a potential issue with the steering column, or could it be something to do with wheel bearings? I don't have a video/audio clip of the issue unfortunately.
