The preliminary results on the search for hard diffraction in pp collisions with the D0 detector at Fermilab are presented. The presence of forward rapidity gaps is observed in events with high transverse momentum jet production at the center of mass energies 1800 and 630 GeV. The fraction of events with rapidity gaps is significantly higher than that expected due to multiplicity fluctuations and is consistent with predictions for hard single diffractive jet production. A class of events containing central dijets and two forward rapidity gaps is observed at {radical}s = 1800 GeV consistent with a hard double pomeron exchange event topology.
