DHCP packets from outside of the network

Hello,

Just recently my dhcpcd 6.11.5 started logging lots of messages like this:

eno1: truncated packet (0) from 101.249.179.246
eno1: truncated packet (0) from 180.95.225.130
eno1: truncated packet (0) from 219.142.242.201
eno1: truncated packet (0) from 171.12.10.197

I don't really understand why this is happening. Is the daemon trying to reach 
those external IPs? Or are these incoming connections from outside that are 
not properly filtered by the ISP?

Thanks
