The discovery of x-ray jet like features using the soft x-ray telescope onboard Yohkoh satellite is reported. The origin of newly discovered x-ray jets and the relation to known solar jets at other wavelengths are discussed. The jets are associated with flare like bright points, flaring emerging flux regions, or flaring active regions. They appear to recur at the same place. The following characteristics are found: in some cases, a dark void appears after ejection at the footpoint of the jet; some jets show structure which suggests a helical magnetic field configuration along the jet; one of the jets associated with a flaring bright point was found to be identified as an H alpha surge. In this case, the x-ray bright point is situated just on H alpha bright point at the footpoint of the surge. The top of the surge is not bright in x-rays.
