PHP-CURL curl_multi_exec is it really multithreaded internally?

My question is very simple as stated in title. However I rephrase it again. I want to download multiple sites using php-curl. I'll run it from console. I am going to use curl_multi_exec to download all the sites. Now the question, will curl create different threads for each of the request? I know I can achieve it by forking multiple processes. But thats not threading. I dont want threading. I want to know if its multi-threaded?
