Damage from rogue state (6)
I believe the answer is:
impair
'damage' is the definition.
(I know that impair is a type of damage)
'rogue state' is the wordplay.
'rogue' becomes 'imp'.
'state' becomes 'air' (air is a kind of state).
'imp'+'air'='IMPAIR'
'from' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for impair that I've seen before include "Damage or handicap" , "Harm" , "Hobble" , "Spoil strength, quality of" , "blunt" .)
