The present disclosure relates to a battery cell. The battery cell includes: an electrode assembly; a pouch which wraps around the electrode assembly; an electrode tab extended from the electrode assembly; a lead tab attached to the electrode tab; and a current interrupt device which is configured to block reconnection of the lead tab and the electrode tab when the pouch is shrunk to return to an original position after being expanded, while blocking current flow by separating the lead tab and the electrode tab through the expansion of the pouch, when abnormal situation of battery cell occurs.
