brake light and charge warning light

Hello

I just wanted to check with you all if I have the culprit of my lights correct. I think it's due to my alternator.
The car is able to turn on sometimes but it does not accelerate in drive or reverse, but in park I can get the rpm to go up. Also these lights came on after a trip to the US, driving in total about 30hrs there and back.

Is it the alternator? I already checked the fuse and the battery is only about 2 years old.

Thanks.

Based on the lights alone I'm 90% sure it's the alternator. It's strange you can't drive the car at all, but maybe I've never had an alternator that far gone lol.
