    This looks like a combination of a couple log entries. I've never
    seen duplicated fields (DST=, SRC=, etc.) in IPTables logging data.
    But, assuming that it is one log entry, depending on your network
    config, it looks like your IPTables is picking up both sides (pre-NAT
    & post-NAT) of something that is being NAT'd. Possibly bounced....
