I believe the answer is:

assault

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">violent attack</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for assault that I've seen before include "raid" , "Lash" , "Attack suddenly" , "Mount an attack" , "Attack violently" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Guardian, The Times, The Telegraph and The Independent.
