The ORIGINAL_DST is correct. It is the dst-IP of the TCP packets when
that traffic arrived at your Squid machines NAT system.

That can happen due to any of these reasons:

0) you have explicit/forward-proxy traffic arriving at the NAT intercept
port.

1) you have destination-NAT operating no some machine between Squid and
the client.

2) you have destination-NAT operating somewhere in the network *after*
Squid forwarding that traffic back at the Squid machine.

3) you have DNS interception operating on the clients DNS lookups
telling them that your Squid IP is "the origin" for those domains.

4) you have DNS interception operating on Squid DNS lookups telling
Squid itself is the "the origin" for those domains.

The intercept works okay *because* you did not configure the client(s)
that way.

NAT interception MUST only be done on the Squid machine itself. The
clients traffic MUST be going to somewhere other than your Squid when
NAT intercepts it. ORIGINAL_DST will be that other place - origin or
external proxy.

To send different types of traffic to the proxy requires different
listening ports to receive them. One for each type of traffic.
 "HTTP" can be an of three types of traffic - explicit/forward, reverse,
and origin syntax.
 "HTTPS" can be any of those three inside TLS wrapper, plus a number of
non-HTTP protocols.

Your Squid will need:
 - http_port for explicit/forward (port 3128) traffic, and
 - http_port for NAT intercept traffic (port 80), and
 - https_port for NAT intercept HTTPS (port 443) traffic, and
 - (maybe) an https_port for TLS explicit proxy traffic.

When ssl-bump is involved each of the above ports should have it as a
configured option as well as their mode type (no mode flag for the
explicit proxy ports).

Overall if you are in a position to configure the clients to be aware of
the proxy that is the best setup to use. Interception of any type
imposes a lot of major problems to the traffic handling and should be
avoided if possible. Intercept is a last-resort type of traffic handling
for applications which are not properly HTTP compliant.

Te above should be a FQDN so your clients can fetch and render error
page contents correctly.

Alex has already mentioned the other major issues with this squid.conf
setup so I shall skip them here.

Please add the corresponding mangle table rule(s) to prevent case (1),
(3) and (4); and the POSTROUTING nat table rule(s) to prevents case (2).
