Israeli man feels called to help Palestinian kids after losing his son to war

Buma Inbar is a Jewish Israeli whose son was killed in the Lebanon war 22 years ago. Now, he volunteers to look after sick kids from Gaza. He works with immigrants from Ethiopia, with ultra-Orthodox communities and with Palestinians seeking medical care in Israel. He’s a “one stop shop” for entry permits, hospitalization, medical treatment, accommodation and food. Reporter Rebecca Rosman brings us the story from Tel Aviv.
