Why don’t you tell me.

Recognizing that you can't block access to a river flowing through a semi-arid area, the Israeli fence on the River Jordan generally lies 1/4 to 1/2 mile away from the river. The space between the fence and the river remains agricultural.

Nor is it much of a fence. The part I've seen appears to be about 6' of hogwire on metal posts, topped by three strands of barbed wire tilted toward the river.

Security is primarily provided by heavily armed, highly mobile squads of IDF, stationed at strong points along the fence line, supported by a network of forward observers and remote sensors.
