MOGADISHU, June 26 (Reuters) - A suspected bomb blast killed several women on a road outside a busy market in the Somali capital Mogadishu on Tuesday, witnesses said.

"I saw dead women and others who were wounded. It was an ugly scene with blood everywhere. I could not count the dead, I just glanced at once and ran away for my life," local businesswoman Hawa Jama told Reuters.
