GENEVA, Aug 17 (Reuters) - A United Nations aid convoy managed to enter Gori on Sunday, the first time U.N. organisations have reached the Georgian town since fighting started last week, and found signs of "massive looting". "While the buildings did not appear to be very damaged, there are clear signs of massive looting of both shops and private accommodations," the office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees said in a statement. (Reporting by Sam Cage via Geneva Newsroom; Editing by Jon Boyle)
