IS said the men shot dead inside Palmyra's amphitheatre were soldiers captured from the city of Homs, the BBC reports.
The men waiting to be killed appear to have been beaten on the face.
Their killers were young males, between 13 to 14. The massacre took place on an amphitheatre stage in front of a large black IS flag, said the BBC.
Palmyra and a nearby modern city, known locally as Tadmur, was captured by IS militants in late May. Twenty other men were killed in the same Roman era theater few days after Palmyra fell.
