I just guessing here—didn’t watch the video—but doesn’t Israel have a desalination plant near the Dead Sea. By product is probably salt so...

The Romans planted salt gardens. When they wanted to make a point or leave an impressive message they would raize a town, clear away the rubble and heavily salt the earth where the town once stood.

Life was simpler then.

1.5 miles built in one month - salt hardens over time in the sun and rain; its surface becoming sharp as knives and the 45 degree slope is very hard to climb - they hope to finish it in 1 year. Will slow down smugglers, illegals and guns from entering Israel - also lessens the burden on the IDF guarding the border and is ecologically friendly thing to do with salt from various chemical industries. Keep in mind that Jordan is basically a ‘Palestinian’ state run by Hashimites.
