Also means
assault
Usage Note
Agresión can refer to a verbal attack as well as a physical one; Spanish law uses agresión sexual for sexual assault. The accent is on the final syllable because the word ends in -ión; the plural agresiones drops the written accent as the stress is now penultimate by the regular rule.
Examples
"El país condenó la agresión militar."
Natural Translation
The country condemned the military aggression.
