Activists say gunmen have killed 11 workers at a state-owned factory in central Syria.

It's the second execution-style shooting reported in less than a week.

The shooting happened Thursday as workers were arriving at the fertilizer factory. Their bus came under fire.

A pro-government Facebook page is blaming the rebel Free Syrian Army.
