Sudden violent attack (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

blitz

(Other definitions for blitz that I've seen before include "Sudden military attack" , "Burst of activity to achieve an end" , "Sustained bombing as in WWII" , "Intense (aerial) bombardment" , "Aerial attack" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
