ICMP - Yet another destination unreachable - Rookie

Hi there, I am no Wireshark neither packet capture expert, nevertheless I am attempting to understand why a SIP/TLS app is not behaving as expected, so I have attached wireshark to a mirrored port on our switch, which mirrors all traffic on the PBX network.

What comes to my eyes is that we have some ICMP errors:
