During attack, foreign article put down again (6)

I believe the answer is:

relaid

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'put down again' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'during attack foreign article' is the wordplay.
'during' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'attack' becomes 'raid' (raiding is a kind of attacking).
'foreign article' becomes 'el'.
'raid' enclosing 'el' is 'RELAID'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for relaid that I've seen is " put back down".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
