Qld premier remembers MH17 victims

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has paid tribute to the 298 victims, including eight Queenslanders, who died when Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was shot down over Ukraine a year ago.

Ms Palaszczuk told parliament on Friday the families of the eight Queenslanders would be feeling terrible grief, particularly on the tragedy's anniversary.

"The world was saddened and shocked. Australia was saddened and shocked. Queensland was saddened and shocked," Ms Palaszczuk said.

"People across the globe and around the country experienced the hurt, loss and confusion that comes with unexplainable death on such a large and inhumane scale."
