《世界人权宣言》（英语：Universal Declaration of Human Rights，缩写：UDHR）是联合国大会于1948年12月10日在法国巴黎夏乐宫通过的一份旨在维护人类基本权利的文献（联合国大会第217号决议，A/RES/217），共有30条。宣言起草的直接原因是对第二次世界大战的反省，是第一份在全球范围内表述所有人类都应该享有的权利的文件。其完整文件由联合国出版在其网站上。
《世界人权宣言》与《经济、社会及文化权利国际公约》、《公民权利和政治权利国际公约》（两公约）一起包含在国际人权法案中，两个公约都是在1966年通过。

A top United Nations humanitarian official on Sunday offered a grim assessment of Israel's war against Hamas as the world marked International Human Rights Day.
In a statement, the UN's Humanitarian Coordinator in the Occupied Palestinian Territory Lynn Hastings condemned Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel but said Israel's ongoing response in Gaza was disproportionate.
Non-state armed actors like Hamas had obligations under international law, Hastings said, adding that the perpetrators of the October 7 attacks in which more than 1,400 Israelis were killed and more than 240 others taken hostage must be held accountable.
“The killings, sexual violence and kidnappings … traumatized an entire nation. Elderly, disabled, and children have not been spared,” she said.
Since October 7, Israeli forces have turned much of Gaza into a wasteland. Airstrikes have reduced entire neighborhoods to rubble and nearly 2 million people — the vast majority of Gaza’s population — have been forced to flee their homes, according to the UN.
At least 17,700 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Ramallah, citing sources from the Hamas-controlled enclave.
Israel’s response "cannot be justified" Hastings said.
“The air strikes against civilians and civilian infrastructure such as hospitals, schools, and UN facilities and the repeated displacement of the civilian population cannot be justified. Nor can the siege, depriving the entire Gaza population of food, water, health care and hygiene,” Hastings said.
“In 2023, I should not have to issue such a statement. It is as if we have learned nothing in the past 75 years.”
Some context: Israel's foreign minister said last week he had revoked Hastings' visa due to the "bias of the UN." The move came as multiple UN officials warned of an "apocalyptic" situation in Gaza for displaced civilians, who face overcrowding and the spread of disease.
