In an incomprehensible twist of fate, a Queensland woman who lost her brother in the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 discovered on Friday that her stepdaughter was on the plane shot down over Ukraine.
Kaylene Mann's brother Rod Burrows and sister-in-law Mary Burrows were on board flight MH370 when it vanished in March.
On Friday, Ms Mann found out that her stepdaughter, Marie Rizk, was killed along with 297 other passengers on Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17, which U.S. intelligence authorities believe was shot down by a surface-to-air missile.
'It's just brought everyone, everything back,' said Greg Burrows, Ms Mann's brother. 'It's just ... ripped our guts again.'
Mr Burrows said his family was struggling to understand how they could be struck by such horrible luck on two separate occasions with the same airline.
'She just lost a brother and now a stepdaughter, so...' he said of his sister as his voice trailed off.
