Raising call for attention upon attack from bee (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hoisting

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

'raising' is the definition.
(hoisting is a kind of raising)

'call for attention upon attack from bee' is the wordplay.
'call for attention' becomes 'hoi' (call used to get someone's attention).
'upon' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'attack from bee' becomes 'sting' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'hoi'+'sting'='HOISTING'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for hoisting that I've seen is " Lifting".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
