I am recieving an ICMP Source Quench Recieved message from an Host which is based in the US.

Does anyone know why this happens?

A quick google brought this up

ICMP Source Quench - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not heard of it before, but that looks to explain it well

Numerous potential reasons. The receiving host or a router intermediary is instructing the sending host to back off the rate of traffic sent.

Like Turgon stated there could be many reasons. It is more than likely a routing issue, or a network congestion problem. You may want to look at the packets more in depth and make sure its not malicious.
