Thwaites Glacier has developed multiple massive cracks in the last week, and huge parts of it seem to be breaking off.

We are talking approximately 2,000 km², about half the size of Rhode Island.
That amount of ice, which will melt after it breaks off, would be roughly 0.67cm of global sea level rise on its own.
The Thwaites Glacier is also known as the Doomsday Glacier, because once it starts to go, it will not stop… and it is now collapsing far faster than previous consensus estimates.
*the warmest year on record so far
It doesn’t get recorded until it happens, so yes.
