This has been discussed on the list before.

There is an "invite" coming from the outside. With SIP an invite can be
sent, but unless the inviter can supply the proper credentials to place a
call, it won't be passed by the proxy, and will "fail".

What it looks like is that someone found your sip server on the net and
tried to see if they could dial international calls.

While not something you might feel good about, it happens, and as long as
your sip credentials are not easily guessed you are probably ok. If, for
example, you do not need international calling, ensure at your provider that
it is turned off.  Your firewall logs might also prove useful in determining
where this originated so you can protect against it.

Those are attempts at dialing euro numbers.
