Wont' do anything

Just now I wanted to start the engine the usual way, foot on the brake and double tap on ignition switch. Tried the first time, car struggled to start, tried the second time car struggled to start again. It looked like battery low or discharged.

Then I pressed the ignition switch three times without pressing break pedal and somehow the car is steering locked.

Car head lights came on, I changed it to off position it still was on! The service indicator was blinking in it's usual pace. Ignition switch position light off, doesn't show ACC, OFF etc

I tried to release the lock, the steering lock indicator came on and off but couldn't get the lock off!

Now no indication light is on, except the service indicator, car locks with intelligent key but window doesn't move as I open or close the car door.

Both head and tail lights are on but at a very dimming level!!

What the hell is going on with my car?
