First strike Rule 702.7 Glossary

A keyword ability that lets a creature deal its combat damage before other creatures. See rule 702.7, “First Strike.”

Although the returned creature is an attacking creature, it was never declared as an attacking creature. This means that abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger when it enters the battlefield attacking.
March 19, 2021 Wizards of the Coast
While resolving Alesha's triggered ability, you can't pay the cost multiple times to return more than one creature card.
March 19, 2021 Wizards of the Coast
Alesha's triggered ability checks the card's power only in your graveyard. The creature will still be tapped and attacking if its power is greater than 2 after it's on the battlefield.
March 19, 2021 Wizards of the Coast
Any effects that say that the returned creature can't attack (such as that of Propaganda, or if the creature has defender) affect only the declaration of attackers. They won't stop the returned creature from entering the battlefield attacking.

You choose which player or planeswalker the returned creature is attacking. It doesn't have to be attacking the same player or planeswalker Alesha is attacking.
